A handsome vintage home, completely renovated in the past two years with gorgeous high-end finishes and details.

As you would expect, it is a full-service building. This corner unit, 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom home - plus study/office, combines two-east facing units, creating a rare 3900 square feet of flexible space all on one level. 4 exposures provide constant natural light, lake views and treetop views of Elm Street and Lake Michigan. The bedrooms are all ensuite, and sellers currently use one as a playroom. The private elevator opens directly into the foyer. The open layout provides great living flexibility. There are two handsome fireplaces. 10-foot ceilings and distinctive woodwork details and finishes offer a refined elegance.
