Situated on a rare 37.5-foot-wide lot, 1838 N. Wolcott Ave. is an unparalleled 6 Bed 6.1 Bath Bucktown stunner with 4 Bedrooms on the second level. This exceptional custom home seamlessly combines sophisticated design, modern functionality, and remarkable craftsmanship. Within this Environs-built all-brick property, featuring comprehensive updates by Set Setting Studio, the space has been carefully curated at every turn to balance comfort with dramatic details and architectural flourishes. Enter the spacious foyer and you instantly appreciate a generous width that allows for a range of design possibilities. Next you are led to a dramatic two-story living and dining space, flooded with natural light and showcased by custom wall paneling and architectural volume. The open floor plan extends gracefully into a visually impressive kitchen and family room designed for everyday living. The chef's kitchen features an oversized island, new quartz countertops, a Moroccan-inspired tile backsplash, and custom hood, along with a suite of Sub-Zero, Miele, and Wolf appliances. Anchoring the breakfast area is a built-in banquette that invites cozy meals overlooking a professionally landscaped and designed backyard garden viewed through oversized floor-to-ceiling windows. The second-floor primary bedroom suite is a private sanctuary that abounds with smart design details. Two custom walk-in closets provide an excess of storage space. A luxurious spa bath features a built-in tub, oversized steam shower, and elegant touches throughout. Three additional ensuite bedrooms share the same level. Each is thoughtfully designed and connected by a striking open walkway that overlooks the dramatic living space on the main level below. A laundry room is provided for convenience on this level. Upstairs, a top-floor bar area opens to a spectacular 45 X 30 rooftop deck with skyline views, which along with a very comfortable garage-roof deck and the expansive backyard garden provides a wealth of private outdoor space. Descend to the lower level to appreciate heated floors, two guest suites (one of which is ensuite), a large gym, and a giant recreation room with wet bar perfect for entertaining, watching a movie, or relaxing. Two full bathrooms, a large second laundry room, ample storage, and a wine cellar round out this level. Another of the home's singular attributes is its enclosed breezeway, which connects directly to the attached garage - a prized Chicago rarity that enhances convenience year-round. Located just steps from the well-maintained "606" trail, across from the Drummond School, and surrounded by Bucktown's best restaurants, boutiques, and parks, with easy access to public transportation and expressway, this home is truly an exceptional opportunity to own one of the premier neighborhood's most distinctive extra-wide homes.
