5801 N Sheridan Rd

A mid-century, 20-story lakefront condominium tower built in 1956 that offers primarily two-bedroom residences along with larger multi-bedroom tiers that span building frontages. The exterior presents a straightforward postwar high-rise profile set directly on the lake and adjacent beachfront park; terraces and a roof deck provide outdoor vantage points. Interior common areas include a staffed lobby with elevators, on-site maintenance and management offices, secured entry with CCTV and monitored doors, and storage and laundry facilities. Typical unit finishes combine period details and frequent modern updates: hardwood floors, built-in storage and cedar closets, quartz and granite counters, open-plan living/dining layouts, and full walls of windows framing lake and city views. Building amenities emphasize beach access and community recreation — a gated beachfront patio/garden with grills, bike storage, party room, and direct access to the lakefront trail. Practical services include valet/leased garage parking, bicycle storage, and a live-in engineer; assessments commonly cover heat, air conditioning, water, basic cable and internet. The condominium permits pets and allows a limited number of rentals, with active capital reserves and periodic capital improvements such as roof and elevator work completed in recent years. Located in Chicago’s Edgewater neighborhood, the property sits within easy walking distance of transit (Red Line), grocery options, neighborhood shops and restaurants, and Loyola University.
