Description

Welcome to 1447 W. Flournoy of Little Italy. This expansive home is a perfect mix of elegance and space. Built in 1894, its' solid construction has stood the test of time. Enter the home via the wide bluestone staircase, to the foyer and living room. The living room includes a likely original stained glass window, located above the large picture window. The living room has a fireplace and is flanked by built-in bookcases. Adjacent is a large dining room, able to accommodate a crowd. A partial wall in the dining room was removed, enabling a convenient pass thru to the newly remodeled kitchen (2022). Professionally painted cabinetry, quartz countertops and tiled backsplash now grace the kitchen. If the abundance of cabinetry was not enough, a pantry/mud room is located off of the eat-in dining area. A family room in the back of the home is a great gathering place to relax or watch some TV. Step outside to the bluestone terrace for some outdoor entertaining. A powder room which conveniently connects to the laundry room, completes this level of the home. The second level includes 4 bedrooms and 2 newly remodeled baths (2022)and a long hallway, with several windows, connects them all. The main bedroom suite includes a balcony, atrium ceiling heights with added windows, 2 walk-in closets and a private bath. The bath has a newly rebuilt massive shower with rain head, shower head & handheld spray, and a double bowl vanity with loads of built-in storage. The other 3 bedrooms each include a wall of closets, skylights, and/or unique windows. The 4th bedroom is currently being used as an office and includes custom built-in cabinetry. Access to the attic is available through a pull down ladder. The lower level was a total gut rehab in 2018, and made way for another area for home use, or could be used as an income producing large studio/1 bedroom apartment with its' own furnace, ac and utility account. The tenant can live in style with heated floors, tiled bath, including a washer & dryer. Enjoy the new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and enough space to accomodate a living room, dining room and area for a bed. Separate access is available through the garden level front door, located in lower level patio. The apartment can be locked off from the rest of the lower level area, which includes a workroom, exercise room/den, storage and mechanical room. A separate 2 car garage is included and street parking is plentiful. New roof house and garage (2020) , new hot water system (2020), gutters (2015). Within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, parks and nightlife. Pleasure to show!

  • Us on 15th & Racine
    "We work in the downtown loop. We walk to one of two bus options, either 2 blocks or a 1/4 mile walk when we’re dropping our child at a nearby Montessori. Bus is just over 20 min on average. Sometimes we drive in. SUV (or taxi/Uber) takes about 20 min and motorcycle about 17 during typical morning commute times. Take 3-5 min off during non-commute hours. We avoid the highway most times commuting though that is easy to access when desired. "
