About this home
Step into a piece of Chicago history with this meticulously updated residence, circa 1910. Originally built by a discerning homeowner who chose the beloved bungalow style for this expansive, extra-wide lot, the updates seamlessly blend historic charm with modern luxury. A generous setback from the street creates a sense of privacy and grandeur, offering a welcoming approach to the home. Similarly, the oversized rear yard provides a rare urban oasis with ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, and entertaining. A welcoming feature of this home is the expansive front porch, subtly screened by a mature Japanese maple. It's perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing on a sunny spring afternoon while you enjoy the neighborhood's charm and substantial front yard. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined while preserving its original character. The main level boasts a high-end, open kitchen featuring custom white and walnut cabinetry with functional, high-end drawer and pantry pull-out hardware. Built-in appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a perfect combination of form and function for culinary enthusiasts and entertaining. Make dinner while taking in a view of the rear yard. Hardwood floors flow throughout the home, leading to a spacious living room centered by a fireplace. Original details, including beautifully preserved wood windows, doors, a staircase, trim, and moldings, add to the home's unique appeal. The main level also features two generously sized Jack and Jill bedrooms and a tastefully appointed full bath, offering comfortable living spaces. Ascend the original hardwood terraced staircase to find three spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a perfected layout. This suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a modern freestanding tub, dual vanities, gorgeous tile work, and a glass-walled tiled shower. A conveniently located laundry area and ample closet space enhance the suite's functionality. A large family bath on the second floor with dual vanities, a separate tub, and shower caters to family and guests alike. The extra-deep, finished basement provides even more living space, featuring a massive family room, a fourth full bathroom, an office, and a workshop, along with an exit to the rear yard. This space offers endless possibilities for recreation and storage. Modern comforts and efficiency are paramount. The home boasts updated mechanical systems, including a zoned high-efficiency HVAC system, ensuring year-round comfort and energy efficiency.
