About This Home

2-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront residence (1,700 sq ft approx.) with absolutely sensational views from its 42 ft private balcony on the 30th floor of this premier building. This unique remodeling opportunity is a partially renovated "blank canvas" now ready for a new owner to complete the remodeling reflecting their unique taste and lifestyle. A portion of a total renovation has already been completed in 2024, which includes demolition and removal of all fixtures, built-ins, appliances, cabinets, tile and wall coverings with a brand-new installation of all new drywall and insulation and resurfacing of the ceiling. Also, the unit has recently upgraded windows/sliding doors (worth $50,000) with sound-dampening slider windows with retractable screens. The full-length balcony affords spectacular and forever unobstructed views of Oak Street Beach and Lake Michigan; historic East Lake Shore Drive and the Streeterville skyline; Navy Pier and a full view of the Ferris Wheel and fireworks. Watch the annual Air and Water Show from your 30th floor front-row balcony seat! Further features include a split floor plan to provide privacy, in-unit laundry hook-up and one of the very few properties on Lake Shore Drive where the living room and all bedrooms face the lake. 1212 North Lake Shore Drive is a full amenity building with 24-hour door staff, attached valet garage parking for 2+ cars ($285 per month per car), EV charging, visitors parking, assigned large storage locker and an on-site management office. The building's 35th floor recreation center provides a magnificent year-round all glass 60 ft indoor lap pool, exercise room with new equipment, all-new locker rooms, two sun decks with jaw-dropping views and a newly remodeled hospitality room and catering kitchen. Superbly located in the Gold Coast moments from the Magnificent Mile and all the very best Chicago has to offer. Pet friendly for 2 pets (no weight limit). Please note, listing photos include a beautifully renovated unit (which sold for $850,000) with the identical floor plan one floor below, to showcase what this apartment could like like after renovation.
