New Look! Recently refreshed with updated floors, baths, and paint. This extraordinary home is an exceptional buy in the heart of Lincoln Park. Situated on a double lot (48' x 115'), it offers remarkable outdoor space-not a lot line-to-lot line home. Perfect for buyers seeking something beautiful, distinctive, and unique-definitely not a cookie-cutter property. This five-bedroom, 4.3-bath, 5918-square-foot residence features a spacious side yard. Originally built on a single lot, the owners later purchased the adjacent parcel, expanding the home to include a family room and office addition while preserving generous outdoor areas for an extraordinary patio, lush yard, landscaped grounds, and a private putting green. The professionally designed landscaping creates a serene and private green oasis. As part of the renovation, the home features an updated, eat-in, open-concept kitchen that overlooks the adjacent family room and offers beautiful views of the yard. Top-of-the-line appliances, elegant cabinetry, and stunning countertops make this a true chef's kitchen and an ideal space for entertaining. Upstairs are four bedrooms, with access to additional outdoor spaces. The lower level includes a large, bright recreation room, laundry area, excellent storage, and an additional ensuite bedroom. Architectural highlights throughout the home include soaring cathedral double-height ceilings, an attached garage, three powder rooms, and expansive windows that flood the interior with natural light from the south and west, seamlessly blending the indoor space with the surrounding greenery. The owners have meticulously maintained the property with numerous updates: newer roof, mechanicals, tuckpointing/masonry, hot water tank, irrigation system, and front entry. The floors have just been refinished. This home is understated and quiet on the exterior yet dramatic on the inside. Located in a prime Lincoln Park setting where double-lot homes command significantly higher prices, this property represents an exceptional value and opportunity. Steps from Lincoln Park's best restaurants, shops, the L train, the Oscar Mayer School District, and close to the lake and highways.
