About This Home
On the market for the first time, this custom Bucktown residence is tucked away on a peaceful street that is a 5 minute walk to both the Western Blue Line and the 606 / Bloomingdale Trail. The main level impresses with diagonally laid hardwood floors, intricate millwork framing the windows and doors, two fireplaces, and a dramatic staircase accented by glass panels and a two-story glass block wall that floods the space with natural light. The living room is anchored by French doors opening to a Juliet balcony, while the front and rear of the home are separated by a clever double-closet hallway and a jewel-box powder room featuring leather-studded walls. The open-concept great room combines kitchen, dining, and sitting areas - complete with espresso-colored custom cabinetry, a fireplace, striking light fixtures, and access to a small deck. The L-shaped kitchen showcases sleek black granite, a brand-new gas cooktop island, wall oven with convection, separate GE Advantium halogen oven, and an oversized pantry. From the deck, stairs lead to the garage rooftop, prepped with lighting and electricity and ready to become your future urban oasis. Enjoy the rare convenience of a hallway with direct access to the 2 car heated garage. The second floor skylights pour light into the cathedral-ceilinged hallways. A full-sized laundry closet makes wash day effortless. The primary suite stuns with an entrance hall lined with a walk-in closet on one side and a spa-like bath on the other. Floating cabinetry, dual shower heads, and soaring ceilings elevate the ensuite, while the oversized bedroom offers cathedral ceilings and French doors that open to potential for a future balcony or catwalk to the garage rooftop. Two additional bedrooms and one additional full hall bathroom all feature cathedral ceilings, generous closets, and abundant natural light. The lower level is finished with porcelain tile floors, high ceilings, large windows, and a full bathroom, the basement's front section is ideal as a family or media room. The rear section, once used as a business office, can easily transform into a massive bedroom, in-law suite, or creative live/work space with its own wet bar and private entrance. Modern conveniences include central vacuum, built-in flush-mount speakers, a home security system with cameras, dual-zoned furnaces, heated floors in the basement and primary bath, and recessed lighting throughout. The location is unbeatable - directly across from Ehrler Park and near Holstein Park, with neighborhood favorites like Floyd's Pub, Irazu, Margie's Candies, and independent coffee shops just steps away. Commuting is effortless with nearby public transit, the Clybourn Metra, and quick access to I-90/94.
