Located within the sought after Elmhurst Park neighborhood nestled between UL & Downtown, this unique historic home built in 1918 and was once the former Mrs. J.W. Faulk's Nursery School prior to becoming the current residence of the prestigious award winning Architects behind Emery McClure Architecture - recently named among America's Top 200 Residential Architects by Forbes Magazine. The striking layout and interior design is complete with a studio apartment / mother-in-law suite. This home is rich with history, unique character & magazine worthy style and charm - this is a rare find! Soaring 12' ceilings, original non-functional fireplaces, tons of natural light, large closet storage & quality updates and building materials such as solid cork flooring. Professionally designed updates throughout capture the overall ambiance that makes this a truly one of a kind prize property. Every detail lends itself to maximizing space, low maintenance versatility as well as function for both a personal residence, live/work lifestyle or even a multi-generational household with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main home, multiple sitting areas and an attached yet entirely private 1b/1b attached apartment.
