**Multiple Offers Received, Highest & Best due Wednesday 10/7 10am** Reimagined from the ground up on an expansive 37.5' wide lot in Irving Park's highly sought-after West Walker neighborhood. Expected completion October 2026, with select finishes still available for buyer personalization. This exceptional residence combines elevated designer finishes with an incredibly functional floor plan across three beautifully finished levels. A sophisticated James Hardie exterior introduces the home, while 7" wide-plank white oak flooring, custom millwork, and curated Restoration Hardware and Visual Comfort lighting create a refined, cohesive aesthetic throughout. The main level is anchored by an American Heritage fireplace with zonal heat and a dramatic white oak grand staircase crowned by a skylight and Arhaus chandelier. At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen features custom walnut cabinetry, a 36" Wolf range and microwave, panel-ready Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, and panel-ready Bosch dishwasher. Dual mudrooms provide exceptional everyday functionality, while a first-floor bedroom offers flexibility for a private office or guests. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite features a private balcony, dual walk-in closets with custom organization, and a spa-inspired bath appointed with a Restoration Hardware vanity and Carrara marble throughout. Two additional generously sized bedrooms, a beautifully finished full bath, and a laundry room complete the upper level. The newly excavated and rebuilt lower level offers an impressive 8' ceiling height, exterior access, two additional bedrooms, a wet bar, and recreation space ideal for entertaining, guests, or a home gym. Custom closet systems throughout provide thoughtful storage on every level. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a new deck equipped with a gas connection for a grill or fire feature and a rarely available expansive side yard. A new-construction 2.5-car EV-ready garage and additional parking pad complete the property. Ideally situated steps from The Color Club, Cafe Urbano, Tony's, neighborhood dining, and everyday conveniences. A rare opportunity to own a completely rebuilt home offering sophisticated design, elevated functionality, and unbeatable value in one of Irving Park's most desirable residential pockets.
