About This Home
Nestled on a quiet block of a beautiful, tree-lined street, this extraordinary 5200 SQFT home is unlike any you have ever seen in Lincoln Park. As you enter through two oversized oak doors, you immediately notice a unique and refreshing layout as you stand in a two-story living room with soaring, 17 ft ceilings. This dramatic space is the perfect place to entertain on a grand scale and features a fireplace, multiple seating areas, and natural light flowing through huge windows with views of blooming trees throughout the spring and summer. A stunning powder room is conveniently located between the living room and kitchen. The other half of the main level is dedicated to informal living space. The kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, a wine fridge, custom cabinetry, ample counter space, an island with breakfast bar, and a built-in banquette. The kitchen opens to a sunny family room with fireplace and access to a stone patio - a peaceful space to dine al fresco. Just steps from the patio, a finished roof deck with pergola is located atop the two-car garage. A lofted den on the second level overlooks the two-story living room, bringing drama and additional natural light to the second floor. Two large secondary bedrooms with copious closet space, a full marble bath, a study, and a laundry room occupy the rest of this floor. The third level is almost entirely dedicated to the primary suite. This graciously sized, serene space features a fireplace, walk-in closet, and floor-to-ceiling windows with French doors leading out to a private balcony. The luxurious ensuite marble bath has heated floors, an oversized shower, separate spa soaking tub with English faucet, double sink, and private commode. A grand 4th bedroom with an ensuite bath and a large, private terrace can also be found on this level. The lower level has a recreation room, abundant storage, and access to the backyard. Walk to Oscar Mayer School, Adams, Trebes, and Oz Parks, shopping on Webster and Armitage, restaurants on Clybourne, public transportation, and all Lincoln Park has to offer.
