High-floor 2-bedroom, 2-bath vintage condo in the distinguished Oakdale Towers - a 1920's Lakeview East building designed by noted architects E.F. Quinn & R.T. Christiansen! With only two units per floor, this residence offers exceptional privacy along with sweeping lake and skyline views. A gracious arched gallery foyer leads into sun-filled living and dining spaces featuring original hardwood floors, restored millwork, custom built-ins, and an original green marble decorative fireplace. Large windows provide excellent natural light and dramatic city views throughout. The kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, a brand-new dishwasher and exhaust fan, fire-rated windows, and ample storage. Both bedrooms are generously sized and include built-ins, with the primary suite highlighted by original stained glass and an en suite bath. Both bathrooms blend vintage charm with modern updates, including original porcelain fixtures, restored medicine cabinets, freshly glazed tubs and tile, Kohler finishes, new toilets, upgraded faucets, and spa-style rain showers. Additional features include SpacePak central air with Nest thermostat, all new windows (2021), restored and rewired original lighting, Schoolhouse and Rejuvenation fixtures, new LED recessed can lighting with dimmers, concealed TV wiring, and professional paint throughout (custom white, 2023). The pet-friendly, elevator building offers a rooftop deck with grills and seating, fitness center, private storage, on-site engineer (Monday-Friday), and new ButterflyMX security and keyless entry system. No deeded parking; but multiple rental options available nearby. This prime Lakeview East location is steps to the lakefront, dining, shopping, transit, and everything that the Broadway corridor has to offer!
