The sizeable adjoining family room opens to a covered outdoor deck, extending your living space and providing an effortless setting for year-round entertaining. A sun-drenched living room-wrapped in north, east, and west exposures-offers an additional space for dining, hosting, and relaxation, complete with a sophisticated built-in bar.

The lower level delivers versatility with radiant-heat, an additional family room, recreation space, a fifth bedroom, fourth full bath, and a second laundry room. Outdoor living reaches new heights with multiple curated spaces-including the covered rear deck, a built-in fireplace set within the yard, and a full-size roof deck atop the oversized two-car garage. Unmatched in both design and location, this home sits mere steps from Winnemac Park and within walking distance to Chappell Elementary, Amundsen High School, the Ravenswood Metra, Brown Line, and all the acclaimed dining, boutiques, and culture of Lincoln Square.
