Nestled on tree-lined Newport Avenue in the heart of Lakeview, this stunning greystone seamlessly combines timeless historic charm with modern luxury. Fully rehabbed and re-imagined from a 3 flat into a single-family home in 2014, this rare gem offers the quintessential city living experience in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods. This home features refinished hardwood floors, gorgeous original woodwork, soaring ceilings, three beautifully restored fireplaces and a primary suite that encompasses the entire third floor. Stepping into the home, you'll be greeted by the lovely marble-tiled foyer and formal living room. The restored original pocket doors lead you into the open concept main floor dining and family rooms where you'll find that the spacious chef's kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring sleek modern cabinetry, quartzite waterfall countertops, top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, and a large walk-in butler's pantry equipped with a second sink, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers, and abundant storage. The floor plan makes this the perfect home for hosting gatherings. Step outside to the expansive and serene backyard, where you'll find a beautifully landscaped private escape with a stone patio, gas firepit, and soft lighting, a true sanctuary. The second floor is designed with versatility and family living in mind, featuring four spacious bedrooms, a light-filled den perfect as an office or study, and impeccably updated baths with high-end finishes. The crown jewel, however, is the third-floor primary suite-a true penthouse-level retreat. This floor is designed exclusively for privacy and relaxation with a chic sitting room, fireplace, spa-like ensuite bath, laundry room, and a massive custom walk-in closet. The ensuite bath rivals the finest of luxury spas, offering double vanities with quartz countertops, a freestanding soaking tub, heated floors, and an expansive double steam shower with modern tile, lighted ceilings, and frameless glass doors. Every level of this home connects effortlessly to outdoor spaces, with decks offering seamless access to the backyard. The 2.5 car garage, constructed in 2019, was built with 14ft ceilings to accommodate lifts, an additional car can be stored above each of the two stalls. Additionally, there's an electric car charger, built-in storage, and even the potential for a rooftop deck.The fully finished basement, renovated in 2017, offers a modern one-bedroom apartment complete with its own living space, custom storage, and a private laundry room-perfect for guests or additional income potential. Notable updates include all-new electrical and plumbing systems, dual new HVAC systems (2019), and a hot water tank (2019). Homes of this caliber and location rarely become available-this is your chance to secure a coveted piece of Chicago's history.
