Unobstructed skyline views define this remarkably preserved residence in the coveted Mies van der Rohe’s iconic ”glass houses.” Situated on one of the most in-demand tiers in the building, this 1,600-square-foot home is wrapped in walls of glass providing the expansive living spaces framed panoramic lake views -creating a seamless connection between the interior and the ever-changing landscape beyond. Originally conceived as a three-bedroom residence and currently configured as an spacious one-bedroom home, the floor plan offers exceptional flexibility while preserving the generous proportions and clean lines that define Mies’ enduring vision. Original tile work and period fixtures remain beautifully intact, offering a rare opportunity to own an authentic residence within one of Chicago’s most celebrated architectural landmarks. The spacious living and dining areas are ideally suited for both everyday living and entertaining. Adjacent to the dining space, the kitchen features stainless steel countertops, premium appliances, generous storage, and a large pantry. The private primary suite includes custom pocket doors, a walk-in closet, ensuite bath, and breathtaking lake views. Widely regarded as one of the most important examples of modernist residential architecture in the world, 860 N Lake Shore Drive continues to attract architecture enthusiasts, design purists, and discerning buyers seeking an iconic Chicago address. Moments from Oak Street Beach, Michigan Avenue, and some of the city’s finest dining, shopping, and cultural destinations, this is a rare opportunity to own a residence where architectural significance, remarkable authenticity, and unforgettable views converge.
