Property Description
Rarely available, extra-wide 4,500-square-foot, 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath single-family home on an oversized 37.5' x 125' lot in the heart of North Center/Lincoln Square. The home offers four levels of thoughtfully designed living space with generous room sizes, exceptional storage, and a versatile floor plan. The main level features a spacious living/dining room, a private office/den with French doors, and a high-end eat-in kitchen with custom wine bar and walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens to a sun-filled family room, while an adjacent mudroom leads directly to the rear deck, large fenced yard, and garage. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite with a private office, custom walk-in closet, and spa bath with double vanity, whirlpool tub, and steam shower. Three additional generously sized bedrooms share a full bath with double vanity. The lower level includes a fifth bedroom and full bath, ideal for guests, an au pair, or extended stays. Outstanding recreation space includes a dramatic third-floor great room with a vaulted ceiling and operable skylight, plus a lower-level recreation room with wet bar, offering plenty of room for play, exercise, media, and entertaining. Additional features include two fireplaces, an upstairs laundry room, radiant-heated floors in the lower level and upper-level baths, dual mudrooms, a workshop, abundant storage, and dual-zoned HVAC. The exceptional outdoor space includes professionally landscaped and fully fenced front and rear yards, a deck, brick patio, and gated parking pad that doubles as a sports court. Three-car parking is provided by a 2.5-car garage with additional storage above and the gated parking pad. Enjoy an unusual combination of generous indoor and outdoor space in a convenient city setting, close to neighborhood restaurants, shopping, parks, and transportation. Located in the Coonley Elementary School district, the home is also near North Park Elementary, Lycee Francais, St. Benedict, and Queen of Angels schools.
