About this House
Situated in the absolute heart of Roscoe Village, this distinguished corner church has been spectacularly converted into a sprawling single-family estate. The handsome red-brick building spans over two city lots and offers approximately 10,000 square feet of magnificent living space. Despite its grand scale, the home is designed to feel remarkably private and surprisingly intimate. The property features 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 2 half baths, and 2 kitchens. The definitive highlight is the former nave, transformed into one of the most spectacular living rooms in Chicago, complete with 25-foot vaulted ceilings and original beams and woodwork. Natural light fills the room, filtered by the breathtaking restored stained glass windows. New herringbone quarter sawn oak floors are stunning throughout. The striking bell tower is accessible via an interior staircase that provides sweeping neighborhood views. The main level kitchen features a mix of new and retrofitted antique cabinetry, chef's appliances, and abundant storage. The dining room opens to a private rooftop terrace tucked nicely behind the crenellated parapet wall. Three guest bedrooms are located in their own wing; one en-suite and the other two sharing a bathroom. One of the bedrooms, currently configured as an office, features a breathtaking fireplace. Rooms are spacious and private, offering fantastic natural light. The primary suite is sprawling with vaulted ceilings, multiple sitting areas, 2 large walk-in closets, a laundry setup, and a large bathroom with a separate tub and shower. It's truly a home within a home. The lower level offers a massive family room with a wet bar, catering kitchen, and mud room leading to the attached two-car garage. There is also a large gallery leading to the guest suite, which has an en-suite bathroom and separate entrance, making it the perfect private retreat. Several efficient mechanical systems keep the house comfortable year round including sub-slab radiant heat and beautiful historical radiators. The well-planned systems create a living environment that is both comfortable and efficient. The location is perfect, just steps to Roscoe Village dining and shopping along Damen, Lincoln, and Roscoe. Located in the Audubon school district and just steps to the Paulina Brown Line station.

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have two children at Audubon and overall have had a very good experience thus far. The community is super supportive of the school, the principal and teachers are caring and hard working, and our kids are developing strong friendships. The curriculum is strong on Reading and Writing, includes specials for music, art, gym, computers and health. The school is not blessed with a big property, but the outdoor play areas and landscaping were updated a few years ago and are very nice. School-based team sports begin in 5th grade.. There are afterschool programs available that have been hit and miss.. but we appreciate all the options we have in the City. We would like to see the school differentiate more so all students feel challenged.. for our family this feels especially true in math, which seems to be taught only to the middle of the pack. However, we find there are many enrichment options either within the school or nearby in the community which have provided plenty of growth opportunities.Parent Review4y ago - Lake View High School
