Perfectly Prairie. The Phillip Griess House designed by John Van Bergen (renowned architect who worked in Frank Lloyd Wright's studio) is a Prairie School gem restored to showcase its striking original details while adding well-designed and thoughtful updates. You will love the open flow and layout of the first floor, which features many windows and a living room with a central Roman Brick wood-burning fireplace. The custom cabinet kitchen has a large breakfast bar, Wolf range/hood, and stone countertops with a window at the sink looking out to the lush and tranquil backyard. The kitchen is open to the dining room, which flows to the library and around to the living room. This house has a Lutron lighting system, Marvin windows, Space Pac Central AC and a custom-built mud room with an adjacent 1/2 bath. Three nice-size bedrooms grace the second level along with a tandem office and a large bathroom with a deep tub + vanity with dual sinks. The basement offers ample storage, laundry and a family room space. You will enjoy this double wide lot (50' x 125') with great space for entertaining. Get ready for Summer on this wonderful block in a great, central location with easy access to the Green Line, Ridgeland pool, and downtown Lake Street fun.
