Live in one of modern architecture's most iconic buildings: Mies van der Rohe's landmark "Glass House" at 860 North Lake Shore Drive. This spacious apartment, with floor-to-ceiling glass, has beautiful lake and city views from its living room, separate dining room and each of its 3 bedrooms. With only 3 prior owners, it is the only unit to preserve the original, mid-century modern details: black tile floors and rich mahogany cabinetry that were offered as upgrades when the building opened in 1951. These unique original details and the walnut and stainless steel kitchen were restored in 2019 when the current owner also added new, top-of-the-line Viking appliances. Enjoy having your own dining room off the kitchen with beautiful built in cabinetry for additional storage. The very spacious corner living room showcases lake views through the floor to ceiling windows and additional shelving and storage. The large primary bedroom is en-suite and all three bedrooms enjoy lake views. If you are a lover of Mies, this home is for you! In this Coop, the monthly maintenance charge includes ALL common expenses, and many expenses that would be charged separately in a condominium, including Utilities (gas, electricity, and water), Internet and cable service. Two 24-hour doormen, Heated garage staffed 24 hours, with car washing service available, 24-hour engineering and maintenance staff, On-site management office, Two exercise rooms, Spacious Hospitality and Meeting Rooms, on-site storage facilities, including ample bicycle storage. Beautiful, landmark lobbies, Apartments designed to minimize sound transmission, Radiant heat in floors. Steps from Michigan Ave, Lakeshore Park, the Lakefront Trail and everything Streeterville has to offer. Valet parking in the building available for lease.
