Property Description
Some homes impress. Others completely redefine what city living can be. Set on an exceptionally rare double lot in the heart of Norwood Park, this extraordinary three-story estate delivers something few Chicago homes ever can: privacy, serenity, and room to breathe. Imagine beginning your mornings overlooking lush green space instead of neighboring rooftops. Spend afternoons beside your private pool, practice your short game on the putting green, entertain beneath the pergola and outdoor kitchen, or unwind to the peaceful sounds of the water as the sun sets. Surrounded by mature landscaping and expansive lawns, every day feels like a getaway. Inside, timeless architecture meets exceptional craftsmanship. A breathtaking three-story foyer and sweeping staircase create an unforgettable first impression, while inlaid oak floors, custom millwork, solid oak doors, and walls of windows fill the home with warmth, character, and natural light. Designed for today's lifestyle, the home offers over 4,200 square feet of beautifully appointed living space, including two remarkable primary suites. One features an expansive spa-inspired bath, while the other is a vaulted retreat framed by a dramatic arched wall of windows with panoramic views stretching for miles. A first-floor bedroom and full bath provide exceptional flexibility for guests or multi-generational living. The inviting family room with fireplace, elegant formal dining room, dedicated office/flex space, and kitchen that seamlessly connects to the backyard make everyday living as effortless as entertaining. From the welcoming front porch swing and striking metal fencing to the extended driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, every detail has been thoughtfully curated. Located in sought-after Norwood Park with convenient access to Metra, expressways, O'Hare, shopping, dining, parks, schools, and medical centers, this home offers a lifestyle that is nearly impossible to replicate. Homes can be remodeled. Finishes can be updated. But you can't create another property like this. Lovingly cared for by the same family for generations, this is more than a luxury home. It's one of Chicago's rarest opportunities.

Explore Old Norwood Park
Well-kept older homes, an abundance of trees and parks, and strong community ties make this north side neighborhood an ideal place for strolling, walking dogs and starting a family. Landscape wise, Old Norwood Park is rather unique, as far as Chicago neighborhoods go. The residential streets manage to avoid the typical grid-block pattern in place of angled roads and circular drives. Thick foliage borders the lots, creating a serene and verdant locale that attracts many homebuyers looking for a pleasant area to settle down, without getting too far outside the city center. The trade off for such quietude and natural beauty is a limited amount of restaurants and businesses within the neighborhood boundaries. But Old Norwood Park residents relish their restful community – besides, there is plenty commercial activity next door in the greater Norwood Park neighborhood.
