About This Home
WELCOME HOME! TOTAL RENOVATION + an INCREDIBLY UNIQUE floorplan in the heart of Lincoln Park! 917 W. Altgeld combines size (2,563 sf), functionality, turnkey finishes, and a prime location-truly a rare gem waiting for its lucky new owner. Step inside from quiet, tree-lined Altgeld Street and immediately notice the charm and warmth of your wood burning fireplace amidst hardwood floors, newer light fixtures, and plantation shutters throughout. The first-floor family room offers flexible space for both entertaining and hosting larger dinner parties. The gut-renovated kitchen (2021) will make you fall in love-new cabinetry, counters, backsplash, and appliances flow seamlessly into the open living space. Unlike most layouts, both bedrooms are conveniently on the main floor, including a spacious second bedroom with a full renovated bath (2019), plus a beautiful primary suite with dual closets and a luxurious en suite (2023) featuring heated floors and a steam shower with dual rain heads. Head downstairs for even more wow factors: a custom office nook (2023), brand-new carpet (2022), and an entertainer's dream space with surround sound, oversized seating, and a renovated wet bar with wine fridge + ice maker. The lower level also includes 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath-bringing the total to 4 bedrooms + office and 3 full baths in this one-of-a-kind home. Outdoor living is just as impressive with a private garage rooftop deck-perfect for summer nights, gardening, or creating a play space. Additional perks include abundant storage, newer furnace + water heater (2022), and true move-in-ready finishes. All this in the Oscar Mayer school district, just one mile from the lakefront, steps to the Fullerton L, and surrounded by Lincoln Park's endless restaurants, bars, and shopping. Schedule your showing today and see how this remarkable property can become your dream home!
