About This Home

As of November 2022

Exquisitely styled both inside and out, this Bucktown gem is truly one of a kind! With 2400 square feet on two levels, this expansive 3 bed, 3 bath designer duplex has a combination of space, comfort, and elegance that you rarely see! The large 1st-floor living room is filled with natural light from oversized windows and includes custom window treatments, crown molding, and one of the home's two beautifully designed marble fireplaces. The sleek and open kitchen features a large peninsula with counter seating, abundant storage with additional open shelving, and a full-wall marble backsplash. It won't be easy to choose a favorite part of the home, but the lower-level family room is difficult to beat. With its tall ceilings, calming atmosphere, cozy sitting area, and a fully functional commercial-grade bar, it's the perfect environment to either relax or entertain. Crafted with oak, soft close cabinetry, custom lighting, and marble and quartz surfaces, it must be seen to fully appreciate! Two generously sized bedrooms are located on the main level with a third downstairs -- all with substantial closet space. The primary bedroom features three custom closets, an ensuite bath, and custom window treatments. Great outdoor spaces including sizable rear deck and common brick paver patio. Garage parking. 100% owner-occupied building with a well-run and proactive association. Amazing location in the Heart of Wicker Park/Bucktown with easy access to public transportation and some of the city's greatest shopping, dining, nightlife, and culture. Welcome home!
