Property Description
Welcome to this magnificently renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence at 3800 N. Lake Shore Drive, ideally positioned across from Lake Michigan in the heart of Lake View. Set within an intimate prewar elevator building with just two residences per floor, this exceptional home offers a rare blend of timeless architecture, modern luxury, and the privacy today's buyers desire. Upon entering, you're welcomed by a dramatic color-drenched foyer featuring a barrel-vaulted ceiling, classic checkered flooring, elegant wainscoting, and original moldings that set the tone for the rest of the home. The foyer opens to an expansive living room anchored by the original fireplace, oversized north-facing windows that flood the space with natural light, and beautifully preserved architectural details throughout. French glass doors lead to the formal dining room, scaled for both everyday dining and grand entertaining. Beyond the double swinging door, the butler's pantry provides additional storage, prep space, and a sophisticated bar area. The chef's kitchen seamlessly blends classic elegance with modern functionality, featuring a Blue Star eight-burner range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, quartzite countertops, inlaid high-gloss cabinetry, and full-height subway tile walls. Privately tucked away from the main living spaces, the bedroom wing showcases an original linen and cedar closet, preserving the home's historic character. Two generously sized secondary bedrooms are connected by a beautifully appointed Jack-and-Jill bathroom complete with a separate soaking tub, walk-in shower, and timeless fixtures. The third bedroom offers a versatile space, ideal as a home office, guest suite, or nursery, and features its own ensuite bathroom. Additional highlights include a new SpacePak air conditioning system, in-unit laundry, abundant storage, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan that perfectly balances historic charm with modern convenience. 3700 features a charming courtyard with grills and renovated gym. Enjoy an unbeatable location just moments from Lake Michigan, the lakefront trail, Belmont Harbor, tennis courts, golf course, public transportation, and the vibrant restaurants, shopping, and entertainment of Lake View East. Building has a valet garage offering one hand car wash a week. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously renovated residence in one of Lake View's most coveted prewar buildings.
