Cook, US
Offered for the first time in 35 years, this rarely available 10th-floor condo in Highland Towers is a vintage time capsule with Chicago skyline views and renovation potential! Set in the most desirable of the three towers, this south-facing unit is tucked away from Golf Road traffic, offering peace, privacy, and the strongest in property values! Inside, original 1972 finishes are ready for their next chapter. Adequate and safe, the unit is readily habitable. The flexible layout lets you keep the enclosed kitchen or open it up as many neighbors have, creating a light-filled modern flow, or a large pass-through. Freshly painted and professionally deep-cleaned, this prized location still showcases some groovy details: a mirrored dining room wall, a cast-iron square 'garden tub', floor-to-ceiling louvered metal closet doors, and sturdy cabinetry that has stood the test of time. The older appliances are quite functional, and the real opportunity lies in bringing your own design vision. Two A/C units have reached the end of their service life, and the floors - aside from the original kitchen linoleum - are all, bare concrete, letting you choose exactly what you want underfoot - carpet, hardwood, laminate, LVP, or tile with no tear-out costs. Bring your imagination, your Pinterest boards, and a sense of adventure! Whether you preserve the layout from its 'true blank slate' state or reinvent it, the possibilities are endless - and the price reflects both value and opportunity! Step back in time... and leap into your next big project! Extra: the Village of Niles operates a free local bus to shopping centers, public facilities, and neighborhoods - no car required.
