Description

Found on a peaceful, one-way, tree-lined street, in Lincoln Park, this modern masterpiece sits mighty. Custom built by LG Development, this is a statement-making 5,200SF home set on a double lot with 50 feet of frontage should your buyer choose to buy the lot available for sale next door). The home is the ideal footprint with 4 beds (with option for 5th on top level), and 4.5 baths. The glass, steel and limestone facade present a one of a kind home with stand out curb-appeal. You will immediately appreciate an entire wall of windows lining the front room letting sunshine soar throughout the property. Striking architectural elements are felt with a well-executed gas fireplace giving warmth to both the front living room and designated dining area beneath a stylish wood-paneled ceiling. The floors are dark, rich and inviting and run throughout paralleled by strong ceiling heights giving the notion of luxury at every turn. The kitchen is prestigious with an open-concept space that is ready for elevated entertaining. The concrete island is robust, anchors this important room and seats 4. The high-end appliances are all oversized with a double Wolf range with stainless professional grade hood, 42 inch Sub and coffee station behind a garage door feature. Abundance of custom cabinetry, additional island storage and more! Your family room, clad with chic built ins lining the TV wall, feels extra private and bright. Upstairs is home to three bedrooms - all sizable with more beautiful modern touches. The owner's suite is sophisticated with built ins including a desk area and its own outdoor space to step out and enjoy the fresh air. The attached bath features large-scale porcelain tile, dual limestone sink, soaking tub and large steam shower with bench, rain shower features and sprayers. Jack and Jill bathroom connects the second and third bed. Laundry on this level creates fabulous functionality. The top floor feels like its own oasis with a custom wet bar with wine fridge and plenty of space for quiet work-from-home accommodations. This level provides amazing indoor-outdoor flow into a distinct roof deck with fire pit, high-end pergola plus hot tub. The lower level provides more optimal hang space in a big recreation room with a massive custom bar with sink, walk in wine cellar, sauna and workout room / 4th bed. Above the two-car garage is another amazing balcony with a built in grill station and pergola. In the Sheffield Neighborhood and within Oscar Elementary, you are close to so much! Walk to Chicago's most loved Pequods pizzeria, Home Slice, Sweet Mandy B's, parks, spas, movie theaters and more.

It’s very central to many neighborhoods in Chicago making it easy to get to Wicker Park, Lakeview, Downtown, and the Lake Path. For being a big city, it’s a very quiet neighborhood. I’ve lived in several different neighborhoods in Chicago and this is by far the most peaceful!"
