Welcome to this exceptional city residence, located along the lakefront in an impeccably maintained co-op building that is architecturally significant and was designed by the notable firm of Huszagh & Hill. Built in 1929 in the neo-French provincial style, it is one of Lake Shore Drive’s most impressive and prestigious addresses.
This cooperative apartment building has a rich tradition of maintaining the integrity of the property as well as honoring the tradition of excellence in service. There are two fulltime door/elevator staff members as well as an onsite building engineer ensuring that all is running smoothly and that each resident and their guest's experiences are top notch.
Located in Chicago’s tony Gold Coast neighborhood, the building is notable for its magnificent expression of elegance and sophistication. The hall features seating areas located around a central fireplace in a spacious area that features gorgeously detailed ornamentation and woodwork in the French style
1540 North Lakeshore Drive is situated across from Lake Michigan and provides easy access to Lake Michigan’s paths, beaches, and trails. It is also blocks from Michigan Avenue and Oak Street.

For the savvy and discriminating buyer, this unique residence is certain to impress. From the moment the elevator operator drops one off into an entryway, shared only with the residents of the apartment across the hall, one begins to sense the refinement, level of service and exceptional privacy and discretion that makes living at the address so desirable.
An impressive recent restoration melds the best of the historic character with an elegant update to fully embrace 21st century standards. The stellar direction and choices of notable interior design firm Jessica LeGrange Interiors create a distinctive and inviting home with an unparalleled level of sophistication, but also of warmth and comfort. Systems and electrical were updated and Space Pack was installed in the renovation process.
Upon entering the grand foyer of the residence one experiences the graciousness of a proper receiving area with ample storage for each guest's coats and parcels. This vast entryway flows naturally into the expansive living room with wonderful views of the lake. Crown moldings and original architectural features were restored as well as elaborated on during a recent significant renovation. The living/dining area opens into a large library/family room, fully maximizing the spaciousness of the apartment and creating multiple seating areas.
For the inspired host or hostess, or culinary staff, the chef’s kitchen is a well-designed space for preparation of large holiday feasts and dinners for social occasions as well as a wonderfully conceived space for the preparation of a quick repast. The timeless Bulthaup-designed kitchen with a Gaggenau, Miele and SubZero appliance package is large and was thoughtfully conceived for proper workflow. A butler’s pantry is adjacent to the kitchen and flows into the family room/library, dining and living room. An additional prep area, home office and intimate eat-in area also flow from the main kitchen area.
Another long gallery leads to the private bedroom chambers. There are three generously proportioned bedrooms with hardwood flooring and dramatic detail work. The gorgeous master suite features two large walk-in closets, a dressing area, and a beautifully conceived and executed master bath with step-in steam shower and separate bathtub. The other two bedrooms are large-scale. Ample closet storage in the apartment in addition to two separate storage lockers assigned to the apartment provide endless options.
