A featured home in Crain's, this remarkable 6,500 sqft single-family home is ideally located in a quiet pocket of Lakeview, just a block north of Lincoln Park. The neighborhood has a suburban feel with wide tree-lined streets, newer masonry homes, and no alleys. With minimal traffic and Chi Che Wang Park down the block, it is a perfect place to live and raise a family! The home is set on a sunny oversized corner lot (nearly a double). Designed by Scott Byron, the beautifully landscaped fenced yard features a bluestone terrace, a huge lawn, and 17 flowering pear trees that line the north side of the property, ensuring privacy during the spring, summer, and fall seasons. Completely renovated in 2011, this attractive home offers high-end, transitional finishes (including wide-plank floors), custom millwork, designer window treatments and lighting, heated bath floors, and more. The versatile main level was designed for entertaining and family living. The living room includes a gas ribbon fireplace with Cosmos stone surround. The separate dining room connects to the kitchen via a butler's pantry. The highly functional eat-in kitchen has custom cabinets, dolomite countertops, and top-quality appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, separate freezer and refrigerated drawers, a Wolf dual-fuel range with double ovens, an Advantium Speed Cook & Microwave oven, and two Bosch dishwashers. The family breakfast room has a wall of built-ins designed to conceal a television. A powder room with Kalista and TOTO fixtures is also on this level. Five bedrooms and four full baths are upstairs. The opulent 1,100 sqft master suite includes a sitting room with rift-sawn oak entertainment center, a room with furniture style built-ins, and a spa bath with separate vanities, jetted tub, and steam shower. The other bedrooms on the second level share a full bath. The top level is ideal as a kid’s floor or for in-laws; it includes two en suite bedrooms as well as a den and roof deck. The lower level includes a rec room with wet bar, an exercise room, a mudroom, a powder room, and ample storage. Designed for a car buff, the meticulous attached 2+ car garage is accessible via a heated driveway off Surf Street. Amenities include zoned HVAC, Crestron A/V, a security & automation system, a fire safety sprinkler system, snow melt, and an outside irrigation system.
