Description

Where timeless architecture meets modern ease, this exquisitely renovated greystone offers room to live, entertain, and unwind in style. With six bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, and a thoughtful three-level layout, every corner invites you to stay a little longer. On the main floor, natural light flows through gracious living and dining spaces, anchored by a designer kitchen and a dining room crowned with a striking fluted light fixture-an art piece in its own right. Wide doorways lead to a rear deck that's perfect for summer dinners or a quiet morning coffee. The second floor is a sanctuary. The primary suite features customized closets and a charming step-up window niche that begs for a built-in seat or meditation perch. An additional ensuite bedroom shares the level, while a private balcony off another bedroom offers a quiet retreat in the treetops. Up on the third floor, the home takes a playful turn: a dedicated Snack Lounge-complete with mini fridge, microwave, and cabinetry-sits among three more bedrooms, ideal for late-night treats or weekend movie marathons. A fully finished lower level provides a guest bedroom, flexible exercise or hobby space, and a convenient exterior entrance. Three separate furnaces deliver zoned heating and cooling for comfort on every floor. Outside, a classic one-car brick garage completes the picture. Set on a serene, short street just blocks from the lake and the pedestrian bridge, this home blends elegance and everyday function. From the statement lighting to the inviting outdoor spaces, 922 E 42nd Place is designed for the way you live-and the way you love to entertain.

    "Okay this area is great if you work downtown and want the feel of living in a quiet suburb. The only place to live is on Drexel Blvd. The park across the street is great if you are a dog person. But its important to pick the right blocks. From 43rd street up to the fountain and track-that is for the most part condo owners and sfh owners-not rental units so that is the best area of the ENTIRE BLVD. Also so easy to get to 55, I90/94 and LSD and the city from here. Lots of city workers live down here, teachers and some federal workers are in our condo building as well as people who work for U of Chicago hospital and university. The crime is far more south and west of cottage grove. I don't see it in our neighborhood. If you have kids in the neighborhood, you send them to the Catholic school around the corner. Or the Chicago lab school. I would never send my kids to CPS schools. My neighbor's little girl goes to a school where you have to test into over in Dearborn park which is close. There are also charter schools in the neighborhood. The neighborhood has a long way to go in terms of restaurants and walkability. We have lived here for 9 years and are dog oriented and really like it because of that. Its not dog crowded and people are social in the park. Pitbulls are welcome and dogs of all sizes must be leashed and you gotta pick up. This is a car neighborhood. There is a whole foods coming around 6 blocks away in about a year -we go to roosevelt for all things grocery so this has never bothered me and we go to Medici and restaurants on 53rd to eat often. Its coming along. I'm not a hyde park fan. Its too crowded to park on the street and not car friendly and I'm a car lover-hate public transportation. But many in my building do walk a block over to take the bus to work. You get a lot of space for your money down here. That is the main reason why people move here. You have a family and work in the city and can't afford suburban ridiculous property taxes-"
