    What's special

    Extra wide 37.5' lot with stunning, luxurious, fully renovated (2017) magazine quality home filled with light, character & picturesque outdoor space. Living & working from home has never been easier with ample space indoor & out. Why need a vacation home when you have a wraparound cottage front porch overlooking manicured front yard, resort quality terrace along landscaped backyard, custom roof deck with pergola & 5 star boutique finishes inside? Not your typical brick box. Enter your home to proper foyer which leads to an inviting living room with built-ins. Perfectly situated powder room accessible from living & kitchen/family area. Charming office/den or intimate dining area off of living room with bifold french doors, fireplace, built-ins & direct access to front porch, ideal for taking conference calls outdoors. Kitchen for the inspired chef features luxury finishes & professional grade appliances, built in Subzero fridge, oversized Colorado Lincoln marble island to seat 5 comfortably, ample meal prep & cabinet space including discreet appliance garage & pull out pantry. Kitchen flows to retro built-in dining & coveted family room area for flexible seating, a wall of windows & light with site line to the outdoors. Family room also has built-in desk or can easily be a formal dining area. Upper-level features skylights, 3 full beds/2 full baths & convenient laundry room on bedroom level & walk-in linen/storage which can convert to closet for 3rd bed. Imagine a daily retreat to your master suite, starting your day gazing from your balcony overlooking secluded backyard. Walk-in closet with large sliding mirrors for hidden seasonal items. Feel like you live at the Ritz in a classic spa bath with a transitional flair. Wash away the day in separate tub & seamless glass shower with gold accents & vanity fit for extra counter space. Luxurious second full bath to satisfy any needs. Both baths feature Japanese commode with heated auto open/close seats. Two expertly designed bedrooms fit to maximize space, each with architectural vaulted ceilings & both with front-facing windows (instead of a neighbors wall) to let light pour in, including quaint built-in window reading nook. A true 3rd level of living in impressive walkout lower-level instead of your typical basement, with a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows pours in light that invites outside in with easy dual access to walkout rear terrace and front yard. Perfect for in-law arrangement, guests, or household members that want to have more privacy. No luxury spared for a lower level featuring open recreation, more Lincoln marble, a wall of built in drawers for ample and elegant storage, full wet bar, and two additional bedrooms still with incredible light, a full bath, and ample closet space in the bedrooms and hall with three extra closets sufficient to meet all your storage needs. Take advantage of a custom 6-zone whole-house audio system. Take your outdoor entertaining to another level with a large garage roof deck with dining area, plant beds, and additional seating for relaxing outdoors on top of your 2 car garage. And where in Chicago do you have room for a yard, terrace, and even full area for trampoline or bonus recreation. Additional bonus features include dual zone HVAC, heated floors in lower level and both upstairs baths, elite security system to offer peace of mind. All in premier Lakeview location within blocks of public transit, grocery stores, shops, Southport Corridor, hotspots on Broadway & Lincoln Park, LSD, Belmont Harbor, Fullerton Beach & all that Lakeview has to offer. Your dream home is move-in ready and awaits...make this your home before it's too late!
