Nestled in the highly coveted WaterFord Condominium, this true diamond in the rough is calling all visionaries, renovators, and HGTV-daydreamers. This 1-bedroom, 1-bath home is one of the few high-rises along the Drive with in-unit laundry-a rare find and a huge win once you work your magic. Step into a combined living and dining space offering a great layout and plenty of room to entertain, relax, and create your own personal sanctuary. Sliding doors lead to one BIG private balcony with direct views of Lake Michigan, and it's also accessible from the bedroom-because fresh air should never be optional. The galley kitchen features a pantry, wood cabinetry, and double sink, ready for a thoughtful refresh. The bedroom includes balcony access and closet space with built-ins. Unit is being sold AS-IS as part of an estate sale, making this an ideal opportunity to customize. Personal items seen in the picture remain. The WaterFord is a full-amenity building offering a fitness center, outdoor pool, and beautifully maintained common areas. All of this in a prime location near dining, shopping, entertainment, CTA bus routes, and quick access to Lake Shore Drive. Bring your contractor, bring your imagination-and maybe bring before-and-after photos. This one's worth it!
