1209 N State Parkway #4 Chicago IL 60610 | MLS #MRD12778209

This is not your typical Gold Coast condo. It is one of those properties you simply do not see come to market often. Hidden behind a gated entrance off prestigious State Parkway, this one bedroom plus office duplex is located inside the iconic Frank Fisher Residences, a Chicago landmark where the craftsmanship is unmatched. Designed by renowned architect Andrew Rebori in 1936, the building is one of Chicago’s most celebrated examples of prewar modernism, with handcrafted details by legendary artist Edgar Miller. With just 12 residences surrounding an incredible private courtyard, it feels worlds away from the city while sitting in the heart of the Gold Coast. The designer owned residence is just as special inside. Soaring two story ceilings immediately set the tone in the living room, anchored by a wood burning fireplace and newly installed parquet hardwood floors. The renovated kitchen blends beautifully into the architecture with quartzite and walnut countertops, a stainless steel refrigerator, induction cooktop, integrated dishwasher, and smart space saving design. Then there is the staircase. Rebori’s original curved sculptural staircase is truly the showpiece of the residence, winding upstairs to the bedroom, full bath, and dedicated office nook overlooking the ivy covered courtyard wall. Every level feels intentional, architectural, and unlike anything you will find in a traditional condo. Outside your door is one of the best surprises of the property. The lush shared courtyard feels more like a hidden European garden than the middle of Chicago, complete with irrigated landscaping, modern lounge furniture, firepits, and a fountain. Secure gated access provides privacy, while the ground level entrance makes coming and going incredibly easy. And the location is nearly impossible to beat. The lakefront and Oak Street Beach are just blocks away, with some of the city’s best restaurants, shopping, and nightlife surrounding you. Multiple parking options are also available directly next door at 1221 N State Parkway for an additional fee. You can find another one bedroom in the Gold Coast. You will not find another one like this.
