About this House

Located within the sought after Elmhurst Park neighborhood nestled between UL & Downtown, this unique historic home built in 1918 and was once the former Mrs. J.W. Faulk's Nursery School prior to becoming the current residence of the prestigious award winning Architects behind Emery McClure Architecture - recently named among America's Top 200 Residential Architects by Forbes Magazine. The striking layout and interior design is complete with a studio apartment / mother-in-law suite. This home is rich with history, unique character & magazine worthy style and charm - this is a rare find! Soaring 12' ceilings, original non-functional fireplaces, tons of natural light, large closet storage & quality updates and building materials such as solid cork flooring. Professionally designed updates throughout capture the overall ambiance that makes this a truly one of a kind prize property. Every detail lends itself to maximizing space, low maintenance versatility as well as function for both a personal residence, live/work lifestyle or even a multi-generational household with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main home, multiple sitting areas and an attached yet entirely private 1b/1b attached apartment.

    "There are many families around here and a reasonable number of parks to amuse the young ones. Park maintenance is pretty awesome with only a scattered couple being in less than desirable locations. The sense of community is dependent on when and how often one chooses to engage with their neighbor but I’ve never met an unfriendly one. Animals are loved, but cats seem a little pervasive with fewer stray dogs. The individuals that do have dogs are rather lax with leashing policies and picking up their dogs poop though- likely due to the fact that no neighbor complains at seeing an off leash dog in the neighborhood. Otherwise it’s a great place to live. "
