Property Description
Live in the iconic Tower Residences of 680 N. Lake Shore Drive in this exquisitely updated residence offering approximately 3,000 square feet of refined living space with a flexible four-bedroom layout or three bedrooms plus a den or home office. Thoughtfully refreshed with new flooring and fresh paint throughout, this sophisticated single-family alternative has not been occupied since the updates and offers gracious living within a timeless lakefront setting. Striking and incredibly durable five-inch custom Midnight Tigerwood plank flooring runs throughout the home, while a dramatic gallery foyer unfolds beneath a coffered silver-leaf ceiling and crystal chandelier. Extensive custom millwork elevates every room and includes chair rails, wainscoting, crown molding, and thoughtfully designed built-ins. The open-concept chef's kitchen is both visually compelling and highly functional, featuring custom-edge quartzite countertops, a generous center island, and a distinctive attached circular concrete dining island. All-white Bentwood cabinetry, refinished in 2025, offers pull-out drawers, exceptional pantry storage, and a large separate pantry with a matching built-in dining hutch and illuminated bar. Appliances include a 30-inch Viking integrated panel refrigerator and matching freezer, Bosch custom panel dishwasher, AGA convection range, and a Waterstone polished nickel faucet with instant hot water. The primary suite is a peaceful sanctuary with beautiful city views and truly exceptional storage, with custom built-in closets seamlessly integrated throughout the bedroom and ensuite and a generous walk-in closet offering outstanding organization and capacity. The spa-quality ensuite features a custom open walk-in shower finished in Calacatta marble with onyx mosaic detailing, a built-in bench, and a dramatic silver-leaf domed ceiling, with Calacatta marble and onyx inlay carried throughout the flooring and countertops. Additional highlights include dual sinks, a dedicated makeup vanity, abundant cabinetry, and a deep soaking tub, creating a luxurious private spa experience. The secondary bath is equally refined and finished in crisp white Daltile. The spacious south-facing second bedroom includes a large custom walk-in closet, while the generous south-facing third bedroom offers both a walk-in closet and additional closet, thoughtfully outfitted with a Calacatta marble desktop and custom shelving. The fourth bedroom or den features a double-hanging closet. Additional highlights include a rare dedicated laundry room with a Bosch stackable washer and dryer, quartz countertops, and generous built-in storage, along with a powder room finished in Crema marble. The home includes one assigned storage space, with one parking space available separately, completing this exceptional, move-in-ready offering. 680 N. Lake Shore Drive is a full-amenity building offering 24-hour door staff, a fitness center, a newly renovated pool and spa, and Amazon Locker. Live in the heart of Streeterville, with easy access to the lakefront and Ohio Street Beach, just steps from the Riverwalk and everyday conveniences like Whole Foods and Target alongside world-class institutions including Northwestern Memorial Hospital, the Northwestern Medical School, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab. The unit next door, Unit 920, is available for purchase also. This is a 2bed/1.1 bath listed for $389,000. MLS 12534576920.
