    What's special

    A beautifully cultivated garden and 1890s Victorian facade deliver exceptional curb appeal. This renovated single-family residence is a three-minute walk from the Belmont Avenue train and only a few blocks to Wrigley Field, Hawthorne Scholastic Academy, Lakeview's Whole Foods and myriad shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities. Very well-maintained with solid mechanical systems and an open floor plan that offers vintage character while meeting 21st-century buyers' demands for convenience and livability. The main level offers a living room with a fireplace, dining room with sky-lit atrium, a custom stained-glass window and a powder room. A generous kitchen with an adjacent breakfast area opens to a spacious composite deck and a beautifully landscaped yard. The second level's split two-bedroom floor plan includes a cozy den with a fireplace and a skylit master suite with a spa bath and an adjacent sitting room overlooking the backyard. The garden level offers a family room with fireplace and walk-out access to a covered patio; a second powder room and a full-size laundry; a third bedroom/bath is ideal for a teen or a guest; and a special bonus: a sunny office with a semi-private entrance and kitchenette, perfect for growing a home-based business. A two-car garage with abundant storage and a Tesla charging station. Although a very livable home, there is room for updates throughout. Opportunity knocks for the right buyer. This home is not currently occupied and can be shown with advance notice. Engel & Volkers Chicago asks that anyone entering the home sign our COVID-19 certification form (please see additional documents). 2020-08-12
