1210 N Astor Street , 1B

Description

Set along the tree lined elegance of Astor Street in the heart of the Gold Coast, this remarkable residence is located within a distinguished 1897 landmark cooperative designed by renowned Chicago architects William Holabird and Martin Roche. The intimate, fully owner occupied building reflects the architectural pedigree and quiet sophistication that define one of Chicago's most historic residential enclaves. Elevated on the first floor, the home enjoys the privacy and presence of a single-family residence, offering a unique sense of separation and serenity rarely found in cooperative living. Inside, soaring twelve foot ceilings, grand room proportions, and beautifully preserved original details, including walnut and oak doors, brass hardware, plaster cornices, and substantial baseboards create a timeless sense of elegance. The gracious floor plan offers formal living and dining rooms, three bedrooms, and two full bathrooms, currently configured as a spacious two bedroom layout with an expansive primary suite and private sitting room. Recent renovations blend historic character with modern comfort. Updates include a beautifully appointed, fully bespoke kitchen featuring custom crafted cabinetry, exquisite marble countertops, and a suite of top-tier appliances, along with beautifully renovated marble bathrooms, SpacePak central air conditioning, and refinished wood flooring. Located just moments from Lake Michigan, Oak Street Beach, and the shopping and dining of Magnificent Mile, this residence offers a rare opportunity to experience classic Gold Coast living in one of Chicago's most architecturally significant settings.
