1120 N Lake Shore Dr. #5B, Northlake, IL 60611

Classic pre-war east/north facing apartment was gutted to the studs and rebuilt in 2016. All new windows, floors, and air conditioning, using vintage hardware, solid wood doors, and re-envisioned archways and moldings. These DeGolyer-designed homes are known for gracious and ample public rooms-the gas fireplace and Juliette balcony (facing north) are stunning focal points in the expansive living room. Note the east wall - facing Lake Michigan - where the curved corners demonstrate craftsmanship and luxury - perfect for a sitting area or a grand piano. The dining room features custom china cabinets matched with a sparkling Swarovski chandelier, offering 2 exposures for Lake Michigan views. The kitchen and butler's pantry are a chef's dream- quartzite counters and backsplash with Wolf appliances... note the pot filler, steam oven, convection oven, and gas cooktop. The warm walnut wood breakfast bar and lighted floating shelves are a lovely juxtaposition to the clean bright cabinetry, and the leaded glass window adds a brilliant touch. The bathrooms are a nod to the past while utilizing gorgeous contemporary finishes - quartzite that evokes marble, subway tile, and custom maple cabinetry. The third bedroom, originally the maid's room, offers laundry and a laundry sink; it's the perfect office/guest room. Just 2 units per floor, this marvelous residence in one of Lake Shore Drive's premier co-op buildings offers attentive service, a marvelous fitness room, a self-service dog wash, large patio area for grilling/dining. A huge storage room is included- your "basement in the sky!" The rich patina of the lobby's woodwork is exactly what you'd expect in this 1926 building-incomparable... ! Move-in ready and waiting for the steward who will enjoy it for many years to come!
