Description

Behind this classic historic Gold Coast facade lies an extraordinary reinvention. Meticulously stripped to the shell and rebuilt just two years ago as a custom residence for the current owners by Environs Development, this is a rare Gold Coast resale that lives like new construction - thoughtfully reimagined with a floorplan that caters perfectly to modern living without a single compromise. In a neighborhood where trade-offs are common, this home delivers on every front. Top-tier amenities include an extra deep 25 x 150' lot, an elevator serving all four floors and an attached 2-3 car garage with huge mudroom. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the kitchen and great room extend seamlessly to a generous 27x18 terrace, outfitted with a motorized retractable awning, then steps up to a 24x24 garage roof deck. All five bedrooms feature en-suite baths, including a standout primary suite with two large walk-in closets and a luxe bath with dual water closets. The massive library/office, anchored by floor-to-ceiling built-ins and framed by steel and glass doors, is adjacent to a third-floor lounge that opens to a 19x16 covered terrace complete with ceiling mounted heaters and an outdoor fireplace for year-round comfort. The lower level includes an enormous guest suite, a glass-enclosed wine wall, a proper fitness room with sauna, a dog room with shower, a 2nd laundry, a massive storage room and a mudroom with direct access to the garage complete with a car lift. This extraordinary residence blends forward-thinking design with timeless elegance and meticulously curated finishes - offering a unique opportunity to own a truly exceptional home in Chicago's most sought-after neighborhood.
