When you step inside, you are greeted by the drama of a stunning staircase with stained glass and a hand carved newel post. Other Arts & Crafts features include leaded glass, egg and dart detailing, crown moldings, baseboard trim plus quarter-sawn oak flooring throughout. This is a home not only to be seen but to be experienced! With amazing attention to detail, the current long-time owner has added to the original home with a 3-story addition replicating many of the vintage details of the original, creating a truly seamless extension with 21st century amenities. The large family room with surround sound for a 'theater' experience and a gas fireplace adjoins the open kitchen with granite tops and high-end stainless appliances. Together, they combine to create an inviting space perfect for family activities. With direct access to a generous deck and the large backyard via the floor to ceiling patio doors, you will experience a seamless flow from inside to out for summer fun. The formal dining room provides the perfect setting for elegant dinner parties as well as large gatherings on those special occasions. The second floor features four spacious bedrooms, three full and updated bathrooms and a convenient laundry room. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, complete with an en-suite bath that boasts a steam shower and skylight plus a walk-in closet. The 3rd bathroom features a whirlpool tub, glass mosaic tile surround and marble floor. The attic holds both a secluded office 'aerie' and a private workout room. The finished basement provides even more living space perfect for a 2nd home office, media room, or game room with an 'au pair suite' - the 5th bedroom and a 4th full bath - plus storage space galore. The mechanical systems boast the same attention to detail as the rest of the home. The basement has a waterproofed foundation and overhead sewers. A commercial, rapid recovery 75 gal hot water heater. All new plumbing and all new electric throughout. Sitting on an oversized lot measuring 32x164, this property provides a large, fenced backyard. The two-car garage's 'hayloft' can be converted to a studio or secluded hideaway. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a home on one of Chicago's most coveted streets.
