Expansive in every way, from it's 100 foot wide double lot, to the 4500+ square foot, three story, brick home. The home is located in the very center of the Jackson Park Highlands and is surrounded by large stately neighbors. The Jackson Park Historic District is located on Chicago's Lakefront, and is just minutes from Hyde Park and the University of Chicago & steps from Jackson Park Golf Course, Jackson Park Harbor, the Presidential Library site & 63rd Street Beach. The double lot gives the property a combined 100 feet of Frontage, allowing for a gracious amount of yard space, rarely seen in the city and very rare for the Highlands Community. The main level was designed for large gatherings with large parlors off a central entry hall. The second level features 4 large bedrooms, two baths and two sunrooms located off the front and rear bedrooms. The third level is an intimate family space with a central family room and two additional bedrooms. The home is in fair condition but has some deferred maintenance and will need significant restoration, repairs and remodeling. Lots of room to add value with comparable renovated homes selling for nearly $1M in the district. Loads of original hardwood details like oak beamed ceilings, large scale built-in cabinetry and millwork, all in great condition throughout the home as well as art glass in the entry hall and stairwell. Outbuilding in rear is the original garage structure and offers plenty of space for a workshop or hobbyist garage. Don't miss out on this opportunity to restore and live in a prestigious Manor home with plenty of land and equity.
