About This Home

As of August 2022

Never seen by the public before & you will never find another property like it! This one-of-a-kind property was completely torn down and rebuilt in 2001. Nestled across from Forsythe Park and minutes from Chicago. The whole build was methodically thought out and really maximizes the space with a garage built under the house. Upon entry your eyes are instantly drawn up with the tall ceilings and sky lights throughout. Offering two generous sized bedrooms with ample storage and deep, double racked closets. The double-sided fireplace is perfect for cuddling up to watch a movie or enjoy while soaking in the massive tub and gazing at the custom hand painted mural. This is a once in a lifetime find and won't last long!
