A thoughtful renovation brings contemporary comfort to one of Mies van der Rohe's iconic "glass houses" while remaining true to his enduring less-is-more philosophy. This beautifully reimagined one-bedroom residence pairs clean modern design with expansive east-facing lake views framed by the building's original windows.The bright living and dining space features warm flooring and a streamlined kitchen with custom Italian cabinetry, stone countertops and a full suite of high-end Gaggenau appliances. Integrated cabinetry throughout provides generous storage while maintaining the home's clean architectural lines. The bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed and enjoys lake views of its own. Pocket doors at both the bedroom and bathroom maximize space while reinforcing the home's minimalist design. The bathroom has been completely reconfigured and features Calacatta marble finishes, an Italian-made Antoniolupi vanity, Toto Washlet and minimal Graff fixtures - creating a refined, spa-like retreat. The result is a renovation that feels intentional rather than imposed-modernizing the residence while honoring the clarity, proportion and simplicity that define Mies' vision. Set within internationally celebrated 860-880 N Lake Shore Drive, this home offers a rare opportunity to live within an important piece of Chicago architectural history.
