Description

Currently configured as two separate residences, this exceptional property offers the flexibility to function as a high-performing luxury investment or be effortlessly converted into one extraordinary single-family home. Built in 2016, 22 E. Elm spans more than 5,100 square feet across three levels plus a finished English basement and is currently arranged as an expansive 7-bedroom duplex and a beautifully appointed 4-bedroom upper simplex. By simply opening existing interior doorways, the home seamlessly transforms into a grand 11-bedroom single-family residence or multigenerational home-no construction required. Wrapped in a timeless limestone facade designed to endure for generations, the home pairs architectural elegance with remarkable versatility. The main level is anchored by a spectacular 22' x 26' living room with a fireplace and an equally impressive 22' x 19' dining room, creating an ideal setting for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Oversized windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting the rich hardwood flooring and sophisticated palette of wood, glass, and stone throughout. Many of the bedrooms are thoughtfully divided by sleek glass partition walls, allowing spaces to be effortlessly reconfigured as bedrooms, offices, studios, or expanded living areas to suit a variety of lifestyles. Two designer kitchens are appointed with premium appliances, oversized center islands, and custom cabinetry. The luxurious 22' x 18' primary suite occupies the second level alongside a generously scaled 20' x 18' secondary bedroom that rivals a second primary suite. An expansive private deck extends the living space outdoors, while the site offers the opportunity to build a 2- to 4-car garage. Located just steps from Rush Street's renowned dining and shopping, Oak Street Beach, and the lakefront trail, this is one of the Gold Coast's most distinctive offerings-equally compelling as a luxury residence, multigenerational home, or exceptional income-producing property. Located within the Ogden Elementary and Lincoln Park High School boundaries.

    "Dogs everywhere on leash. Plenty of grass. Plenty of exercise. Options to get out of the city easily."
  • Lori Roberts
    "It’s a lovely neighborhood and you see lots of moms and some dads pushing a stroller with their baby l/babies. It seems safe, but crime does come into the area sometimes. I’ve never seen that though."
  • Trulia User
    "There are plenty of people walking their dogs around this neighborhood so it will definitely be a common occurrence to see people walking their dogs"
  • Trulia User
    "Overall safe area. usually heavy traffic. Close to beaches, great for summertime. Close to best restaurants and grocery stores."
  • Trulia User
    "Great - wonderful - fantastic - superb - great - fantastic - amazing - excellent - running out of things to say"
  • Trulia User
    "This area is safe and friendly. I always feel comfortable going outside and walking my dog at anytime or walking home from the bars. There is a heavy police presence in the area so you will never be far from one. I am in walking distance of grocery stores and parks and coffee shops. "
  • Maralyn O.
    "If you live in the historic part the trees are wonderful lining the streets. And it’s quiet tucked away in some of these streets. High end shopping and dining in this area."
  • Dorothy A.
    "Transportation is easy and many services available. Walkable to many places. Major subway lines and buses, lakefront bike path, very walkable."
  • Dorothy A.
    "It is near the park and beach and safe. It has nice stores for shopping. It has good transportation to downtown museums."
  • Joseph G.
    "I find this neighborhood to be diversified and have blocks of different architecture, good maintenance. "
  • Renblank
    "11 minutes to get the loop via a cab for about 10 dollars. Red line is also very convenient and so it the bus."
  • Dan F.
    "Incredible proximity to the lake, mag mile, and city center. Amazing waking stress and close to the park. Arguably, the most desirable area to live in Chicago"
  • Madelynn J.
    "Sometimes crowded on the 151 bus, but they’re pretty frequent. I would leave some extra time. The red line also is super crowded at the clark/division in the morning so leave some extra time. Always better to have more time than not enough when trying to commute from this part of town"
  • Joseph G.
    "Convenient, but needs better scheduling during peak hrs. Also, bus status at each stop! Dangerous to be standing out! "
  • Trulia User
    "It is beautiful and clean and it has gorgeous views of the lake with little crime. All of the buildings are well kept. It feels like the upper east side of New York. "
  • KT
    "I travel a lot for work, so my commute is typically a cab to the airport. Cabs are readily available in the neighborhood. I prefer them to Uber / Lyft, which are also readily available in the neighborhood. Other than that, probably 95% or more of my trips are by foot."
  • W.S.
    "The festivals during the Summer months are lively, many are music based yet also have art related aspects to them as well."
  • K
    "I travel frequently for work. O’Hare is about a 25 minute cab ride Monday morning. Thursday night varies a lot but is usually 45-55 minutes. When I’m not traveling, my office is in the Loop, a pleasant 30 minute walk from my apartment."
  • Asya p.
    "Beautiful, well manicured lawns; abundance of fun places to grab food and drinks, lots of groceries, and shopping. Close to the lake. "

    "This neighborhood has the perfect mix of access to the beautiful Magnificent Mile, and a cozy feel with parks and beaches. It's an easy walk to public transportation and the Loop. During the winter, every tree in the whole neighborhood is covered in white lights. It's magical. This area is served by K-12 Ogden International School, which has a 1+ rating with CPS -- the highest rating possible."
