Description
Built in the early 1900s by acclaimed Chicago architect Paul Gerhardt and nestled on a beautiful tree-lined street in the heart of East Lincoln Park, this breathtaking vintage 2-bedroom/1.5 bath home showcases an extraordinary collection of original architectural details rarely found today. Rich, ornate woodwork is beautifully preserved throughout, illuminated by the sunlight that pours through the expansive bay windows in the living room, accentuating the intricate crown moldings, decorative ceiling beams and wall paneling, elegant main archway, and stunning pier mirror as you enter the home. There are two generously sized bedrooms to enjoy. The master bedroom, featuring an original pocket door separating it from the living room, is a peaceful retreat where you can relax with a floor-to-ceiling bookcase that is every bibliophile's dream and large double doors opening up to the front balcony where you can sit and enjoy a nice cup of coffee to start the day or a glass of wine to wind down. The second bedroom is bright with room for a large bed, exercise equipment, and ample closet space. Down the hall, you are greeted by an elegant separate dining room ready to host your next dinner party with a large, ornate built-in cabinet to showcase your fine China or other treasures, original leaded glass windows, wood paneling, and ceiling beams. Next door is a chef's kitchen featuring a large island with wooden countertops, pantry, and ample cabinet space. A versatile den/office area sits just off the kitchen, offering a quiet place to work from home or additional flex space. Modern amenities complete your new home, including SpacePak central air conditioning, in-unit washer and dryer, two storage units, and access to a large, common rooftop deck with great views of the city. The flexible floor plan also presents the opportunity to convert the home into a two-bathroom residence. A deeded parking space in a private heated garage with 24/7 security is available for an additional $25,000. Ideally located just steps from the lakefront, Lincoln Park Zoo, the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, shopping, acclaimed restaurants, public transportation, and Lake Shore Drive, this home offers the perfect blend of preserved craftsmanship and modern city living in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods. It is a truly one-of-a-kind home full of warmth, character, and timeless elegance.
