About This Home

As of December 2024

Orchard House: Experience the high ceilings and vintage wood of this beautifully renovated 1910 home, situated in an amazing location just minutes away from North Michigan Ave by car and three blocks from the lakefront. Sitting on half an acre of garden space landscaped by Scott Byron, this four-story house comprises 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, a 3 car garage, a fully finished walk out basement with an illuminated zebrawood bar, fireplaces throughout, custom kitchen with banquette and luxury appliances, two sun rooms, new deck off the main bedroom, all new utilities, and much more added during a year-long, over 500k renovation. The floor plan hearkens back to the years of pre-cookie cutter houses. Wake up to sunlight and birds chirping in the city's most dog-friendly neighborhood. Here is a home where you can pluck apples and pears from the small orchard, play ball across the double lot of greenery, host parties that spill out onto the lawn, or dine outside under the rose-tinted canopy of a huge Japanese maple. Runners and cyclists can whizz up and down the lakefront path, while sailors and golfers will keep their yachts and golf equipment over at Montrose Harbor or the city's most beautiful golf course. Supermarkets, gyms, a deli and many small restaurants are all within blocks of where you live, surrounded by the other gracious old homes that line your street.
