Welcome to the Carl Sandburg House where the poet wrote his famous poems about Chicago. Completely rebuilt in 2015, plus a 3-story addition, the understated elegance of this 4-level historic home is filled with contemporary luxury details suited to today's lifestyle. The open flowing floor plan leads from a gracious foyer past a glass-doored family room, into an expansive living/dining/kitchen space. The custom kitchen features upscale brands, designer touches, a breakfast bar, and a separate storage pantry. An adjacent elegant butler's pantry has a bar and sink, a built-in desk and printer drawer, a wall of custom drawers and cabinetry, a full-size freezer and a beverage refrigerator - all the bells and whistles you expect in a home of this caliber. From the floor-to-ceiling channel-carved limestone surround for a giant see-through gas fireplace, to honed granite and marble surfaces to walnut and other hardwood custom cabinetry throughout, this home pays unparalleled attention to exquisite taste and detail. Large glass doors lead outdoors, where silent air conditioners allow peaceful enjoyment of an enormous Ipe deck, grassy backyard, and nature lover's paradise with a joyful mixture of native plants, perennials and fruit trees that host and feed butterflies and migrating birds. Other outdoor entertainment spaces include a roofed lounge with built-in overhead heater, and an insulated, climate controlled massive 4-car garage divided into 2 flex spaces that can host a home gym, woodshop, or band practice. Of course, the garage is prepped for EV charging and the house, garage and outdoor entertainment spaces are wired throughout with Cat6 cable for internet, external video and audio. Perfect for outdoor movie nights, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, head downstairs to the radiant-heated rec room complete with built-in projector and screen; full bath; full wet bar/in-law kitchen with beverage fridge; full size refrigerator/freezer; multiple closets; and rec space perfect for a pool table. WFH in the large lower-level office or use as au pair/in law 6th bedroom. A full size laundry station with another sink and pantry makes sleepover clean-up a breeze. When it's time to retire, head to the 2nd floor oasis - a primary suite of individual spaces connected via private landing - for a restful night's sleep in the bedroom with remote-control gas fireplace, or enjoy the decadent primary bath with heated floors, steam shower and modern Japanese stainless steel soaking tub. The suite includes a custom walk-in closet and adjacent sunny room for reading, personal office or nursery for keeping baby close, complete with full size stackable laundry. Down the hall are 2 additional large bedrooms, another full bath with double sinks, and heated flooring. Double sets of stairs continue to the 3rd floor; the back stairs lead from the private suite to another perfect home office - expansive yet quiet and serene. Front stairs lead to a 3rd floor primary-size suite with a fully insulated lofted ceiling, huge windows and ensuite along with built-in closets - wonderful privacy for teens or guests. Or use this flexible space as a playroom, yoga and meditation retreat, or fantastic art studio given the quality of natural light. Zoned HVAC throughout allows personal comfort and energy savings. Imbued with a combination of comfortable sophistication and timeless style, this home is indeed a rare find in a fantastic location, walkable to both Ravenswood Metra and Damen El train stations as well as restaurants, groceries, and shopping. Close to Wrigley Field, the magnificent Montrose Beach and several highly-rated public and private schools including Ravenswood Elementary, Rogers Park Montessori, Lycee Francais, Waldorf and 10 minutes by Metra to Beacon Academy. It's the one you've been waiting for!
