Description
Welcome to the Joseph S. Guy House, a stunning example of prairie-style architecture designed by TALLMADGE & WATSON in 1915. This dark brick gem boasts exceptional curb appeal, featuring a handsome bluestone walkway with four massive limestone planters and a front porch framed with copper planters. The house showcases 20 stained glass windows, exquisite stained glass dining room French doors, and a renovated kitchen with updated cabinets and top-notch appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Gaggenau cooktop & oven, and a Miele dishwasher. On the first floor, the 22-by-17 foot living room and library framed in quarter-sawn oak and illuminated with original Stueben glass shades, along with a massive floor to ceiling brick wood-burning fireplace with an oak mantel, define the perfect gathering space. Adjacent to the living room is a south-facing nook framed with 4 art glass windows, cushioned window seat, and original oak built-in glass cabinets, perfect for quiet reading. The formal dining room, with 4 southern faced stained glass windows, showcases built-in china cabinets and continues the barrel vaulted ceiling along with Steuben glass fixtures to match those in the living room. A sunroom featuring original marble floors completes the first floor. The second floor features rich cherry woodwork, additional art glass windows, and an oversized master bedroom with south-facing stained glass windows and custom-built cedar closets. The master bath features travertine tile floors, Fulper pottery accents, and granite counters with two Corian sinks, a large tub, and a separate large shower stall. The second and third bedrooms are serviced by a hall bath which repeats the design motif of the master bath. There's also a sunroom off the master bedroom through French doors that can be used as an office, TV, or reading room. The basement has been recently waterproofed and updated, perfect for a TV room or kid's playroom. The oversized backyard is fully fenced and landscaped in 2021 with abundant flowering shrubs and wildflowers to attract butterflies, and it features a custom outdoor room with a pergola, grill, in-ground speakers, and a gas fire pit set on a bluestone patio. The brick 3-car garage is the perfect backdrop to project movies while you cozy up next to the fire. Ideally located to OPRF High School, Ridgeland Commons swimming pool and ice rink, Oak Park's 4th of July firework display, finish line for the Frank Lloyd Wright 5k, Oak Park Farmer's Market, Pete's Fresh Market grocery store, the Metra and Green Line L Train, and a quick walk to Lake Street restaurants and nightlife. Don't miss your chance to call this Oak Park gem your home!
