About This Home

Beyond the wide-set cobblestone streets of Morgan Park lies a residence that feels as much like a home as your own private chapter of Chicago history... Welcome to 2138 W. 109th St., a 1913 American Foursquare exuding both soul and stature. Nestled along the southern end of Crescent Park, this home represents the very essence of the Morgan Park/Beverly Hills moniker, "Village in the City"- with its very own park-like grounds spanning across a 9,100 square foot lot, you'll feel as though this piece of property couldn't possibly exist here in the city of Chicago. At the front entrance a charming screened-in porch welcomes you in and serves as a darling space to enjoy from Spring to Fall. Once inside, you'll immediately feel the standard for perfection raised. Across 2,600 square feet, every room has been reimagined with sensitivity and style, preserving original period features while elevating the home for contemporary family life. Exquisite woodwork is showcased across every floor, from the built-in bookcases in the foyer to the intricately carved staircase, all masterfully restored with precision. Natural sunlight dances through formal and intimate reception areas, making even the chilliest Chicago days feel cozy and bright. The formal living room offers both elegance and comfort, with vintage light fixtures still in tact and a grand mantle updated with an electric fireplace, harmoniously blending the historic integrity of the home with the expectations of a modern buyer. Stunning woodwork flows to the formal dining room, with gorgeous beamed ceilings and a built-in credenza offering functional storage with uncompromised style. The kitchen has been beautifully updated with quality finishes, featuring ceiling height natural wood cabinetry and rich soapstone counters, a unique and striking combination complimented by modern pendants. The peninsula offers seating and additional storage, and serves as the perfect casual pull-up zone for every-day meals or morning coffee. Directly off the kitchen/dining room is a flexible space offering potential for an additional designated dining area, den, or office/homework nook. The main level footprint was thoughtfully designed for entertaining with three easy-flow access points for meal preparation in the kitchen, to serving in the dining room, and finally retiring around the fireplace for drinks in the living room, making holidays, celebrations, and intimate gatherings ideal for hosting. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms each with their own walk-in closets, a true rarity among 1920s era homes. The primary suite is luxurious in both size and amenities, featuring a walk-in shower, dual vanities, a 3rd built-in vanity for primping and accessorizing, and a walk-in closet with built-out organization drawers and shelving. The gorgeous woodwork continues throughout the second level, with hand-carved railings guiding you to the spacious landing featuring another set of original built-ins, as functional as they are beautiful. The second floor guest bathroom was fully updated with no expense spared, featuring 'Rejuvenation Chicago' finishes throughout. The walk-up attic is easily accessible, the perfect hideaway for storing luggage, holiday decorations, etc., while also offering endless potential for future expansion. The full basement is immaculate and spacious, with a laundry/utility room, private office, rec. room for play, and even a work room with access to the former coal shoot... yet another unique and historic element further making this home feel like it's truly one of a kind. Outside, a deep and private yard with lush gardens anchors the calm, a serene retreat where kids and pets can run freely, and fully fenced in for both privacy and security. Enjoy the very best of the vibrant Morgan Park/Beverly Hills Community, with historic architecture and wonderful local restaurants and establishments right outside your door. Your search ends here... welcome to 'The One.'
