    What's special

    Welcome to Sherwin on the Lake, where vintage elegance meets modern lakefront living. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath top-floor condo offers panoramic views of Lake Michigan from the main living areas and a rare combination of historic grandeur, smart updates, and resort-style amenities. Built in 1926 as a luxury resort hotel, the building was designed as an in-town escape, complete with a private beach, pier, and even water taxi service to the Loop. Today, it retains many of its original resort features, including a stunning art deco lobby, former ballroom, expansive lakefront veranda, and boat storage. Inside unit 811, you'll find light-filled living and dining spaces with oversized windows that frame breathtaking lake views. The kitchen offers generous cabinetry and prep space, perfect for cooking or entertaining. The condo also features hardwood floors throughout, ample closet space, and in-unit laundry-a modern convenience that sets this home apart. The primary bedroom includes a large closet and en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, an office, or creative use. A deeded outdoor parking space is included, and indoor parking is available for rent nearby. Residents enjoy access to a private beach and pier, peaceful gardens, a lakefront patio, bike room, and professional on-site management-all just steps from the Jarvis Red Line, local cafes, Loyola University, and parks. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chicago's lakefront history, with modern updates, iconic views, and unmatched character.
