Under Contract in PLN. A special oasis in Lincoln Park, this 4 bedroom, 3.1 bath, meticulously maintained home boasts sophistication, charm, and a warm feeling of space & light throughout. Stepping inside from your private, gated side entrance, a grand, 2-story foyer welcomes you to this custom built home that was remodeled by TZS Design. The spacious living room with gas fireplace and built-ins also has a bay picture window looking out onto the trees. A formal dining room (with built-ins) connects to your spacious, open kitchen featuring white, Amish cabinetry with soft close drawers, double oven, large island with cooktop, vent hood and seating for 4...plus professionally organized, walk-in pantry and eating area with banquette & built-in cabinetry. This then steps out to your backyard oasis - a large deck that overlooks and steps down to your private, landscaped patio with bluestone pavers and planters - the perfect space for outdoor entertaining, relaxing & gatherings (even room to put a hot tub). It truly feels like your own private retreat! Back inside, the curved, grand staircase (with stylish iron railing) takes you up to the 2nd floor with 3 beds and 2 baths. A grand primary suite - complete with two large, professionally organized, walk-in closets (plus a bonus shoe closet!) - has hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and even a wood burning fireplace. The en-suite bath is light and bright with double sinks, separate soaking tub & shower with body sprays. Two additional bedrooms, a renovated bath with walk-in shower and linen closet complete this floor - which feels open and bright from the skylights (with remote-controlled shades) and detailing. The home's lower level is more of an English Garden, as it steps out to your patio. There's a large family/recreation room (with the ability to create a separate, private office if you like) and a huge 4th bedroom with 9-foot ceilings - perfect for long-term guests or a home gym. This level also has side-by-side laundry with sink, wine cellar and another full bath. Additional features include custom lighting throughout, gated side entry (and fully fenced yard) 2+ car garage with a dedicated 220 volt line for electric car charging, and thermal venting fan. Wonderful location close to Lake Shore Athletic Club, Wrightwood & Jonquil Parks, dining & nightlife (Avli, The Monkey's Paw, Broken Barrel, Bird's Nest, & Love Street), Punt & Plume Wine Bar, Starbucks, DePaul University, plus convenient to interstate, Target, Whole Foods, and the heart of Wicker Park & Bucktown.
