This architecturally reimagined Lincoln Park residence-transformed by Scrafano Architects and thoughtfully refined by its current owners-stands out as a rare modern gem on a sun-drenched prime Lincoln Park corner lot. Every element, from the redesigned exterior to the curated interiors, reflects a commitment to design, comfort, and long-term livability. Natural light fills all three levels thanks to the corner exposure, airy volumes, and light oak flooring. A sculptural winding staircase forms the home's centerpiece, while a series of smart upgrades-including Aeroseal ductwork on the top floor and a newer third-floor furnace and A/C-enhance everyday comfort. Fresh interior paint (January 2026) brings a crisp, modern feel throughout. The main level opens with a dramatic entry and a spacious family room and wet bar. The stylish guest suite features a custom Murphy bed and adjoining full bath, while newly installed motorized shades provide added privacy and ease. A new stair runner softens the flow between levels, and the rare attached two-car garage completes the floor. The second level was reimagined as an expansive, sun-filled living environment. The chef's kitchen offers Italian Stosa Cucine cabinetry, Dekton countertops, Dacor appliances all leading seamlessly to the cedar-wrapped 18x10 terrace outside. This level also includes a powder room with updated fixtures, a laundry room, and an inviting living area with new custom window coverings framing leafy Schubert and Magnolia. The top floor hosts a serene primary suite with vaulted ceilings, new custom California Closets, a glass-enclosed office nook, and a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, and updated skylight shade. Manual bedroom shades were recently added. Two additional bedrooms on this level feature new carpeting, fresh window treatments, and an updated shared bath. A new skylight shade along the main staircase filters natural light as it cascades through the home. Additional enhancements include new second-floor window coverings, updated lighting selections throughout, and refreshed landscaping that complements the home's striking architectural presence. Distinctive, design-forward, and meticulously upgraded, this residence offers an exceptional opportunity to own a truly unique home in one of Lincoln Park's most coveted pockets on beautiful Magnolia street.
