Live in the iconic Tower Residences of 680 N. Lake Shore Drive in this exquisitely updated residence offering approximately 3,000 square feet of refined living space with a flexible four-bedroom layout or three bedrooms plus a den or home office. Thoughtfully refreshed with new flooring and fresh paint throughout, this sophisticated single-family alternative has not been occupied since the updates and offers gracious living within a timeless lakefront setting. Striking and incredibly durable five-inch custom Midnight Tigerwood plank flooring runs throughout the home, while a dramatic gallery foyer unfolds beneath a coffered silver-leaf ceiling and crystal chandelier. Extensive custom millwork elevates every room and includes chair rails, wainscoting, crown molding, and thoughtfully designed built-ins. The open-concept chef's kitchen is both visually compelling and highly functional, featuring custom-edge quartzite countertops, a generous center island, and a distinctive attached circular concrete dining island. All-white Bentwood cabinetry, refinished in 2025, offers pull-out drawers, exceptional pantry storage, and a large separate pantry with a matching built-in dining hutch and illuminated bar. Appliances include a 30-inch Viking integrated panel refrigerator and matching freezer, Bosch custom panel dishwasher, AGA convection range, and a Waterstone polished nickel faucet with instant hot water. The primary suite is a peaceful sanctuary with beautiful city views and truly exceptional storage, with custom built-in closets seamlessly integrated throughout the bedroom and ensuite and a generous walk-in closet offering outstanding organization and capacity. The spa-quality ensuite features a custom open walk-in shower finished in Calacatta marble with onyx mosaic detailing, a built-in bench, and a dramatic silver-leaf domed ceiling, with Calacatta marble and onyx inlay carried throughout the flooring and countertops. Additional highlights include dual sinks, a dedicated makeup vanity, abundant cabinetry, and a deep soaking tub, creating a luxurious private spa experience. The secondary bath is equally refined and finished in crisp white Daltile. The spacious south-facing second bedroom includes a large custom walk-in closet, while the generous south-facing third bedroom offers both a walk-in closet and additional closet, thoughtfully outfitted with a Calacatta marble desktop and custom shelving. The fourth bedroom or den features a double-hanging closet. Additional highlights include a rare dedicated laundry room with a Bosch stackable washer and dryer, quartz countertops, and generous built-in storage, along with a powder room finished in Crema marble. The home includes one assigned storage space, with one parking space available separately, completing this exceptional, move-in-ready offering. 680 N. Lake Shore Drive is a full-amenity building offering 24-hour door staff, a fitness center, a newly renovated pool and spa, and Amazon Locker.
