A property like this, is rarely on the market and is sure to be sold quickly. A 2-unit, 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath property that lives like a single-family home. Currently, the garden unit is being operated as an Airbnb, yet easily (even prior to closing*) could be transformed into a full single-family. Or use the property as-is and collect supplemental income to offset your mortgage taxes and insurance. The current owner is a creative interior designer specializing in historic restoration. She has preserved and enhanced the unique details, while ensuring that modern conveniences provide the quality of life that you expect from your Chicago city home. Some of the Old-World charm that makes this property unique, include; functioning gas lights, antique solid oak front door, custom stained-glass windows, an opalescent glass doorknob, clawfoot bathtub, antique brass doorknob, built in antique mirrored coat tree, outdoor large baluster from England and the hallway skylight ...This is not your typical vanilla box. As you walk through the single-family portion of the property, you'll notice the elegant white pickled hardwood floors and the winter focal point; the wood burning fireplace! The rich and authentic 9-foot exposed brick walls run from the Living room to the Kitchen. This open floor plan makes social-distance entertaining easy and healthy. The Kitchen offers frosted glass,maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gleaming Uba tuba granite counters, and a breakfast area, leading to the spacious mudroom with French doors, tall pantry and laundry appliances with a dry-cleaning feature. As you make your way to the second floor, DO NOT overlook the swanky staircase that leads to your massive 20 x 20, Master En suite, which includes a bonus nursery/office. The Master bath is huge with a walk-in shower and two person Jacuzzi, double vanity with stained concrete countertops and toasty thermal travertine stone floors. Walking on the elegant "Prada" 100% wool carpet, along with his and hers walk-in "California" closets you will feel like you are in a fine hotel. The second bedroom, has the feel of another master with its dramatic vaulted 26-foot ceilings, the French chandelier and "equestrian stable" style exposed brick wall. New large double hung windows flood the home with light. The bright sunny English-garden unit, is regularly rented bringing forth approx. $24,000 in supplemental income yearly. This 2 bedroom, 1bath unit, sleeps 6 and can be purchased with all the furnishings for an additional* consideration. It features maple hardwood floors and recessed lighting. The second kitchen is perfectly appointed for the guest, in-laws or nanny quarters, stainless steel appliances and black granite countertops, a super cute tiled bathroom with thermal mosaic marble floors.
