An incredible opportunity to own this historic Potter Palmer mansion in the heart of Chicago's Gold Coast. This exquisite residence has maintained much of its vintage charm and original details while the baths and kitchen have been luxuriously modernized. With 5 bedrooms, 5.1 baths, 7 fireplaces, and 5000 SQFT, this home has it all. Upon entry, an inviting living room welcomes you home with giant bay windows, inlaid hardwood floors, a fireplace, and ample room for a baby grand piano or to entertain. Pocket doors in the living room, dining room, and the kitchen allow for all formal rooms to be closed off or left open for a seamless, open layout. The formal dining room with its fireplace with marble surround and an elegantly paneled staircase as a backdrop can accommodate large crowds and intimate gatherings alike. A powder room is conveniently located between the kitchen and the dining room. The modern, renovated kitchen features stone flooring, Wenge cabinets, granite counters, top-of-the-line appliances, and a breakfast bar. The kitchen opens to a family room / breakfast room with a fireplace and direct access to a terrace, ideal for grilling or dining al fresco. Up the intricately carved wooden staircase lined by gleaming paneled walls, a hallway lit by a skylight leads to the primary suite. A serene oasis, the primary suite features a graciously sized bedroom with bay windows overlooking treetop views, a fireplace, a custom walk-in closet/dressing room, and an ensuite bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, double sinks, and a separate vanity. Down the hallway is a large bedroom with a fireplace and a full marble bath with shower. The third level has three large bedrooms and two beautifully appointed baths. The finished lower level has a separate entrance, a recreation room, full bath, and laundry and mudroom off the attached 2 car garage. Ideally located in the heart of the Gold Coast within close proximity to the lakefront, Oak Street Beach, 5-Star dining, world class shopping, theaters, nightlife, parks, playgrounds, and public transportation. Welcome home!
