Lake Shore Drive, this 2,500-square-foot residence occupies one of East Lakeview's most storied addresses - a landmark Beaux-Arts cooperative originally known as The Cornelia, designed in the late 1920s by noted architect Robert DeGolyer and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Within this pedigree, the home itself is modern yet timeless, with bespoke finishes from start to finish. Taken down to the studs and fully rebuilt in 2015, it showcases timeless modern styling throughout, while original details - vaulted entry ceilings, arched doorways and doors - preserve the building's vintage character.

A fitness room, children's playroom, additional storage a large cage and room assigned to 6D, and bike storage round out the amenities, with rental garage options available nearby. The location is exceptional - situated in the boundary for top-ranked Nettelhorst School, and just steps from the eastern Lakeview corridor's celebrated dining and entertainment.
