About This Home

As of May 2025

Nestled in the heart of historic Lincoln Park East, where tree-lined streets showcase stunning Victorian architecture, this exquisite home, built in 1893, captures the charm and elegance of a bygone era. Spanning four levels, this classic residence offers four spacious bedrooms, two additional den/studies, and two and a half bathrooms. Original hardwood flooring throughout most of the home, antique light fixtures, original millwork and beautifully preserved original stained glass windows highlight the timeless character throughout. Two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and ambiance, while built-in bookshelves and generous walk-in closets provide ample storage. The unfinished walk-out basement, boasting high ceilings, invites your creative vision to transform it into an additional living space. The expansive rooftop terrace off the third level can be built out, with the potential to expand even further to a second rooftop deck above the third level. Just steps from North Pond Nature Sanctuary and Lincoln Park Zoo, a five minute walk to Lake Michigan and a short walk to the vibrant cafes, boutiques, and nightlife of Clark Street, this rare gem offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods. Roof resurfaced in October 2024. New boiler and water heater 2023. Schedule your showing today! Property being sold "As-Is".
