About This Property
Nestled in the exclusive and historic enclave of Castlewood Terrace
sits this three-story Tudor Revival style home on a massive 90x114
wide lot. This 5BR, 3.2BA home has undergone an extensive
renovation over the last four years, with every detail carefully
crafted to ensure light, flow, and functionality were at the
forefront. Built in 1909, Alexander Maltman, President of Aetna
Bank, and his son, James, saw the opportunity to build lakefront
estates, capitalizing on the growing entertainment district on
Broadway Avenue. The Maltman's commissioned architect William Mann
to design two Tudor style homes (this home and the one across the
street), and the father-son duo built four homes total on the
street, leaving an indelible mark on Castlewood Terrace. Natural
light fills every square inch of the perfectly proportioned rooms,
showcasing exquisite details crafted with the utmost precision. The
first floor has a fluid layout-a captivating living room w/a
wood-burning fireplace, adorned with a sleek custom-milled surround
and bookcases. The naturally lit sitting room adjacent to the
living room provides an ideal work-from-home environment, or space
for large gatherings. The redesigned kitchen, semi-open to the
living room, and open to the dining area, is a culinary haven with
expansive counter space, professional-grade appliances, custom
backsplash, handcrafted white oak cabinetry, and a contrasting
handcrafted concrete island w/seating. Flowing seamlessly from the
kitchen and dining room, the open and airy family room has new
architect series Pella windows, custom wood paneling, a built-in
media area, and a mudroom w/a discreet custom white oak closet. The
family room extends to a two-tiered deck overlooking the pond and
side yard. A tastefully updated powder room completes the main
level. The upper level has three large bedrooms, including the
expansive primary suite featuring a bespoke closet/dressing area,
an additional walk-in closet, an office/sunroom, and a luxurious
ensuite bath with a dual vanity and spa-like shower. Two additional
bedrooms share access to the updated second full bath. The third
floor is equipped with 2BRs, full bath, and ample closet space.
This level offers many possibilities, such as a private primary
suite, or guest/au pair suite, or office space. The modern
aesthetic extends to the lower level, hosting a versatile play area
with a preserved bar rumored to have once housed a speakeasy (in
fact, when the sellers built the new garage, they found an
underground tunnel believed to be part of a chain of speakeasies on
the street)! Outdoors, the lushly landscaped fenced yard features a
waterfall stone fountain, expansive grassy areas, and mature trees,
creating a private suburban ambiance just moments away from
downtown, Uptown, Andersonville, and Edgewater. The new 2-car
Hardie board garage is equipped with custom storage, Pella
architect series custom windows, and the option for an electric
charging port. Adding to the allure of this home and location is
the fact it is walking distance to the beaches along Lake Michigan,
the Lake Front Trail, and one mile north of the Montrose Bird
Sanctuary. Enjoy all the nightlife and entertainment Uptown has to
offer, including concerts at the Riviera Theatre, Aragon Ballroom,
and soon to be remodeled Uptown Theatre. Some of the best dining is
within 2-4 blocks, including several restaurants in the Asia on
Argyle corridor, Tweet, and Dib. Commuting downtown is simple: 146
(Gunnison & Marine, 1 block away) & 147 (Foster & Marine, 3 blocks
away and runs express to Michigan Avenue) express buses, the
Lawrence Red Line stop, or easy access to Lake Shore Drive!
