Lake Shore Drive is where luxury condo buyers will find many of Chicago’s premier condominium towers and residences. Offering sweeping views of Lake Michigan and unparalleled access to the hottest parts of Downtown Chicago, there’s really nothing quite like living along the lakefront.
Among Lake Shore Drive’s most sought-after condo buildings is 840 N. Lake Shore Drive—an elegant, Lucien Lagrange-designed high-rise that stretches 27 stories high with 70 ultra-luxurious condominiums nestled perfectly inside.
As a medium-sized building, available inventory at 840 N. Lake Shore Drive is usually pretty limited. But every now and then a unit here hits the market that not only raises eyebrows but also tops Streeterville’s list of most expensive condos currently trading.
The penthouse, unit #2601, certainly fits that description and asking a cool $13.5 million, this expansive, 8,800 square foot residence is every bit the show-stopper you’d expect.
Designer-quality to say the least, 840 N. Lake Shore Drive includes six bedrooms, six en-suite bathrooms, two additional half bathrooms, and an additional 1,135 square feet of private outdoor living space that, not surprisingly, provides jaw-dropping views that rank among the city’s best.
Other unit features include a stunning great room with a rotunda sitting area, a custom eat-in kitchen with a built-in wine cellar, game and media rooms, spa-quality bathrooms, and state-of-the-art home automation.
840 N. Lake Shore Drive #2601 also comes with three garage parking spaces as well.
