Description
Set proudly on a coveted corner lot along one of the Lincoln Park's most beloved blocks, this extraordinary residence blends historic character with meticulously curated modern upgrades. Bathed in natural southern light on a quiet one way street, the home offers an exceptional living experience defined by scale, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. Originally constructed in the early 1900s and later unified into a single grand residence, the property carries a rich architectural legacy. Once home to a neighborhood Tied House and steeped in Chicago's brewing history, now transformed into a refined, completely updated family home. Inside, soaring 12.5-foot ceilings and preserved original tin detailing create a striking first impression in the living room, flanked by a bespoke built-in bookcase and elegantly finished gas fireplace. The house is open front to rear and the reimagined kitchen balances the space. Utilizing form and function with all custom finishes, reclaimed wood shelving, and premium appliances, the appliances include a statement induction range and floating hood. Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms and three baths on a single level offer rare flexibility. The serene primary suite is a true retreat, featuring dual walk-in closets and a spa-quality bath with radiant heated floors. The home continues to impress with three fireplaces, curated custom window treatments, and a finished lower level thoughtfully divided into fitness and recreation spaces. The rear garden is nothing short of spectacular, professionally landscaped and designed for year-round enjoyment. A custom masonry fireplace crafted from antique Chicago Common brick serves as a dramatic focal point, complemented by bluestone pavers, architectural fencing, integrated lighting, and a premium outdoor sound system. The completely rebuilt coach house elevates the property even further, offering a versatile, design-forward space with a full bathroom, a built in queen Murphy bed, and independent climate control, making it ideal for guests, work-from-home, or studio use. The 2 car garage features extra tall ceilings and offers easy parking access. Perfectly positioned near Armitage's vibrant retail corridor and public transit, the home offers effortless access to both boutique shopping and everyday conveniences. Despite its proximity to everything, the street itself remains peaceful, neighborly, and lined with mature trees-an increasingly rare balance in the city. This is a unique opportunity to own a one of a kind home that seamlessly bridges Chicago's past and present-delivering architectural significance, luxurious comfort, and an exceptional urban lifestyle.
