Nearly 30 residences and buildings make up his masterpiece portfolio, including his own home and studio in the ever so loved community of Oak Park. 617 N Kenilworth was meticulously gut rehabbed in 2008.

There are a total of five bedrooms and four full and two half bathrooms that embody this picture-perfect property. The original structure blends seamlessly into the new construction. Pristine quarter sawn white oak flooring throughout is just the beginning. Natural sunlight drenches this envious floorplan thanks to endless "walls of windows."

It has two primary suite options. One is currently being used as a penthouse office suite.

This floor boasts the same pristine quarter sawn white oak flooring throughout. Revel in four idyllic sized bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a second enticing laundry room. The primary bedroom showcases one of three fireplaces in its intimate sitting area. The third floor is currently being used as a third family gathering space equipped with fireplace, office, and full bathroom. Rich and cozy Ralph Lauren carpet throughout the third floor.
