Property Description

Nestled on an exceptionally rare 26x141 oversized corner lot in Old Town, this all-brick single-family home stands out with its abundant natural light, high-end updates, and lush, private backyard oasis. Located on a quiet one way treelined street just moments from the best of Old Town, Lincoln Park, and within the sought-after Lincoln Park High School district, this sun-drenched residence benefits from north, south, and west exposures, casting incredible light across every level. From the moment you enter, soaring ceilings and a flexible open-concept layout create a bright, inviting atmosphere. The spacious living area features a custom limestone hearth and direct-vent gas fireplace, blending warmth with sophistication. The renovated chef's kitchen is as functional as it is stylish, with soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, pull-out shelving, and top-tier appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Bosch double oven, and a Viking 6-burner cooktop with griddle, it is perfect for culinary enthusiasts. French doors open from the spacious family room encased in custom shelving, to a private rear deck that flows seamlessly into an extraordinary backyard retreat. Professionally landscaped with perennial gardens, a majestic Spruce tree, and paver bricks, the outdoor space is as unique as the home itself. A gated drive leads to your 2-car garage, offering both privacy and convenience. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite impresses with soaring ceilings over 11 feet, custom closets, and a fully renovated spa-like bath featuring Grohe fixtures, Robern cabinets with built-in outlets, quartz counters, a Kohler soaking tub, and heated floors for ultimate comfort. Two additional bedrooms share another updated full bath. The lower level offers even more flexibility with a large rec room, newer carpeting, a fourth bedroom or home office, and a renovated third full bath with heated floors. Additional upgrades include Energy Star HVAC (2017), brand new windows in most rooms (2017), custom lighting throughout the main level and primary suite, and newly installed cedar fencing for enhanced curb appeal and privacy. The home is part of a professionally managed fee simple HOA ($475/quarterly) which includes snow removal, landscape care, private waste collection, and alley maintenance. All of this, and easy access to shopping, dining, and public transportation. A truly one-of-a-kind opportunity on a quiet residential block, offering the space, light, and style you've been waiting for.

Distinguished by a captivating past that lingers in the occasional brick alley, the thriving commercial district along Wells Street, and the faint toll of bells from St. Michael's Church, Old Town is a historic Chicago neighborhood, reborn into the 21st century with an ardor that has captured many people's interest as an enchanting place to live and a safe environment to raise a family. Old Town's beautiful residential blocks, lined with century-old grey- and brownstone walkups, are broken up by the flurry of activity along the neighborhood's central thoroughfare. Old Town boutiques are known for their specialty items, local designer wares and one-of-a-kind fashions for you and your home. Tucked in among the awning-covered storefronts are popular dining spots that are regular stops for in-town celebrities. In the summer, Old Town explodes with fun and excitement as folks come from all around to visit the neighborhood street festivals, which are among the most beloved in Chicago.
