Ready for a bit of Paris? Or Vienna? Located on fabled Elm Street, this impeccably maintained rowhouse is one of the Gold Coast's best opportunities. Last renovated and decorated in the 1980's, the house maintains so much of its original charm w/high ceilings, intricate millwork, original doors, and wonderful detailing throughout. There's a lot to love here: a beautiful staircase, a large private garden/yard, 5 original fireplaces, great light, and rooms w/bays highlighting the splendid architecture. Newer windows, central air/heat, updated electric. Ideal location steps from the lake, restaurants and cafes, and boutiques. Bring your architect or designer to personalize this historic gem.
