About This Property
Words cannot describe this one-of-a-kind urban fortress on FOUR 20
foot wide lots! Space, luxury and classic high-end finishes abound
in every corner of this massive 6,300+ square foot home - they just
don't build them like this anymore! Never for sale before, the
family that built this home originally designed the entire cul de
sac for maximum privacy and quiet living in the heart of the city.
You will be transported to another time and place when you see the
incredible exterior brickwork and fence around the lush entry
garden featuring professional landscaping and huge mature trees and
greenery. Head to the backyard for a true garden oasis in the city
like nothing else out there! Because the attached garage is located
at the front of the home, this backyard is truly 4 lots worth of
private green space - the ultimate in privacy! Plus, the whole area
has been professionally designed including the hardscape,
landscape, multiple sitting areas and a sunken patio. You truly
feel transported to an Italian garden, just by stepping into your
own backyard! Upon entering the home you will see that it was built
for entertaining. Many holiday parties were enjoyed over the years
in the massive living spaces including the formal living room
complete with the perfect nook for a wine cellar. Crowds can easily
overflow into the TWO great rooms - one featuring an intricate
built-in with TV cabinet and tons of natural light, and the other
boasting a bar, heated floors, incredibly high ceilings, and
natural light abounding from the transom window from the room above
and unique direct access to a walk-out terrace . For formal dinner
parties, the dining room can easily accommodate 15, and you will
love the grand fireplace and surrounding built-ins that complete
the space. The chef's kitchen features a thoughtfully placed window
above the sink, high end cabinetry, a large island, ample counter
space, top-of-the-line appliances, built-in desk, pantry and
storage. For added convenience, the kitchen has an attached
breakfast nook surrounded by windows, plus it also connects to the
heated, attached, oversized 2.5 car garage with built-in shelving
and storage. A massive crawl space is also underneath the garage
with 6' clearance. Head upstairs to the massive primary suite,
which features an entire wall of custom walk-in closets, and a
gorgeous primary bathroom with a skylight, stand up shower and
separate soaking tub. The two secondary bedrooms are separated by a
loft area that has a perfect desk space and additional lounge or
play space. Both bedrooms are generously-sized, and one
offers a spa-like ensuite bathroom that was recently remodeled.
There is also plenty of space to easily add a fourth bedroom.
This gem of a home is located in University Village - a
classic Chicago neighborhood is rich in history - with easy access
to 90/94, Rush Hospital, the West Loop, Taylor Street dining,
parks, UIC and more!
