Property Description
Yes, you can Live at the Beach! This is a rare opportunity to own true lakefront living in Evanston. Positioned in the highly sought-after southern leg of Tower Court, a distinctive castle-like building from the 1920's, this vintage 1-bedroom offers Lake Michigan views from both north and south exposures filling the home with light, breezes off the lake, and water views all day long. (Only this leg of the bldg has lake views and breezes on both sides). Inside, the home features generous room sizes that blend classic character with thoughtful updates: Hardwood floors throughout. Bright, freshly painted interiors with high ceilings. Granite countertops in kitchen and bath. Stainless steel appliances are just a few years old. From either door, you can be on the sand or in the water in under two minutes. Morning swims, beach days, sunset walks - this can be your everyday lifestyle, not a weekend destination. The oversized basement storage locker easily accommodates all of your beach toys and chairs. Laundry is conveniently located just one flight down (50 cents per load), and permit-required street parking is readily available, with garage and surface lot rental parking options nearby. Don't miss this lakefront gem. Selling AS IS and FURNISHED. Damage from a 3rd floor bathroom leak is scheduled to be taken care of this week.
