This fully renovated home in Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's iconic "glass house, " is where timeless design meets modern luxury. This stunning residence is turn-key, requiring no updates, and boasts breathtaking lake views from every room. Floor-to-ceiling windows with high ceilings frame sweeping vistas of Lake Michigan, neighborhood treetops and the city skyline, offering a front-row seat to Navy Pier's weekly fireworks display. The interior has been meticulously designed with radiant-heated slate grey Italian porcelain floors and frosted glass walls, creating a sophisticated yet inviting ambiance. The sleek, modern kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring top-of-the-line appliances: a Liebherr refrigerator, Miele induction oven, Bosch dishwasher and cooktop, and custom lacquered cabinetry. Remote-controlled shades and color-adjustable lighting allow you to set the perfect mood, while both bathrooms exude spa-like elegance with Robern floating sinks, Grohe fixtures, and large-format marble tiles. Silent, energy-efficient toilets and ample custom closets add thoughtful touches throughout. Adding to the appeal, the architectural committee led by Dirk Lohan, grandson of Mies van der Rohe, is in the process of planning updates to the building's common areas. These updates are poised to further enhance the building's timeless elegance and value. Best of all, the renovations will be funded entirely from the building's multi-million dollar reserve, ensuring no special assessments for homeowners. This makes it an ideal time to invest in this historic property. The building also offers premium services, including 24/7 maintenance, door staff, a fitness center, party room, and heated garage parking. Just steps from Oak Street Beach, the lakefront trail, and the Magnificent Mile, you'll enjoy effortless access to Chicago's finest shopping, dining, and entertainment. Monthly assessments conveniently include property taxes, utilities, cable, and Wi-Fi. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a fully updated home with unparalleled lake views in one of Chicago's most iconic and evolving residences!
