Description

An incredible opportunity to own this historic Potter Palmer mansion in the heart of Chicago's Gold Coast. This exquisite residence has maintained much of its vintage charm and original details while the baths and kitchen have been luxuriously modernized. With 5 bedrooms, 5.1 baths, 7 fireplaces, and 5000 SQFT, this home has it all. Upon entry, an inviting living room welcomes you home with giant bay windows, inlaid hardwood floors, a fireplace, and ample room for a baby grand piano or to entertain. Pocket doors in the living room, dining room, and the kitchen allow for all formal rooms to be closed off or left open for a seamless, open layout. The formal dining room with its fireplace with marble surround and an elegantly paneled staircase as a backdrop can accommodate large crowds and intimate gatherings alike. A powder room is conveniently located between the kitchen and the dining room. The modern, renovated kitchen features stone flooring, Wenge cabinets, granite counters, top-of-the-line appliances, and a breakfast bar. The kitchen opens to a family room / breakfast room with a fireplace and direct access to a terrace, ideal for grilling or dining al fresco. Up the intricately carved wooden staircase lined by gleaming paneled walls, a hallway lit by a skylight leads to the primary suite. A serene oasis, the primary suite features a graciously sized bedroom with bay windows overlooking treetop views, a fireplace, a custom walk-in closet/dressing room, and an ensuite bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, double sinks, and a separate vanity. Down the hallway is a large bedroom with a fireplace and a full marble bath with shower. The third level has three large bedrooms and two beautifully appointed baths. The finished lower level has a separate entrance, a recreation room, full bath, and laundry and mudroom off the attached 2 car garage. Ideally located in the heart of the Gold Coast within close proximity to the lakefront, Oak Street Beach, 5-Star dining, world class shopping, theaters, nightlife, parks, playgrounds, and public transportation. Welcome home!

    "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. "

  • Lauracbritton
    "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."
