It’s giving coastal, Jersey Shore/townhome vibes, simply due to its tall, narrow profile.

Looks like a custom build on somebody’s property that they subdivided.

Looking on Street View, this masterpiece is conveniently located in the front yard of another architectural abomination and about 10 yards from a busy road. What a prime location!!

Satellite and Street View point out that this was most likely the former site of a barn/garage/outbuilding that was torn down.

While not the traditional all brick 9000sf 80s,90s, Y2K “regular McMansions” we’re all used to seeing, this one certainly shares some of the same characteristics as its larger counterparts.

According to Zillow, "situated on a prestigious private lane in East Highland Park, this rare lakefront offering is a Mid-Century Modern masterpiece. Designed in 1957 by renowned architect Henry L. Newhouse II for Irving B. Harris, Chicago Philanthropist, this 10,000-square-foot contemporary residence sits on nearly two acres of lush grounds with magnificent, unobstructed views of Lake Michigan." The asking price is $4,995,000 right now
