Property Description
Set on an exceptionally rare double lot, this remarkable three-story residence offers a level of privacy and outdoor living almost unheard of in the city. Here, your views are your own; lush, open, and uninterrupted, creating a true sense of escape just minutes from everything Chicago has to offer. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the fully fenced grounds feel like a private resort. Enjoy a beautifully landscaped yard complete with a putting green, tranquil water feature, pool, outdoor kitchen with pergola, surround sound, and expansive green space for recreation, gardening, or simply unwinding. Mature perennials frame the home from every angle, delivering color, texture, and serenity throughout the seasons. Step inside to a grand, architecturally designed interior where a soaring three-story foyer sets the tone. Rich craftsmanship is showcased in the inlaid oak flooring, custom millwork, solid oak doors, and a graceful winding staircase. Sunlight pours through countless windows, filling the home with warmth while offering breathtaking views, from morning light to glowing sunsets. The home features two exceptional primary suites, each offering a distinct experience. One presents a more traditional layout with an expansive, spa-like bath often mistaken for an additional room. The other is a vaulted sanctuary, highlighted by an arched wall of windows and sweeping, unobstructed views that stretch for miles. Every season is meant to be enjoyed here, from spring magnolias perfectly positioned outside your windows, to vibrant autumn foliage, to the soft glow of the city skyline on winter evenings. Thoughtfully designed for modern living, the home also offers a welcoming family room with fireplace, a first-floor bedroom and full bath, a formal dining room for elegant entertaining, and a kitchen that opens beautifully to the backyard, making everyday moments feel extraordinary. A second-floor office /flex space are ideal options for working from home or creating a nursery or studio. From the charming front porch swing to the striking metal fence and extended driveway with ample parking, every detail, inside and out, has been carefully considered. Ideally located in Norwood Park, near major highways, Metra access, fitness centers, hospitals, schools, and a variety of shopping and dining destinations, this home offers the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience. Lovingly maintained by the same family for generations, this is more than a home. It's a legacy property. Now, it's your opportunity to carry it forward and experience a lifestyle that is truly unmatched in Chicago.
