4652 N Hermitage Ave. #3N

Rarely available Vintage Penthouse in the heart of Ravenswood - with Parking! This is truly a unique opportunity if you have always wanted to live in a Chicago masterpiece. Artist owners have lovingly maintained this enormous unit that is flooded with light and has impeccably restored oak-grain finishes throughout. The comforting warmth of radiator heat soothes as you are greeted with History at every turn: pristine Window trim, a Bookcase flanked Fireplace, Piers Mirror, Stained glass, tri-beveled Baseboard, Picture rail - all of it restored & original!! Stroll out of your home office onto the most delightful balcony imaginable, sitting quietly over lovely Hermitage Avenue, with the Sandburg house as your neighbor. With tall ceilings and no large neighboring building, the light and size of this space is truly breathtaking. An art loving gallery hall leads to the dining room, a true relic of the early 20th century when dinners were real parties, large enough for your very own superspreader event. That remarkable light continues into the Kitchen where an oversized skylight brightens the tastefully appointed kitchen, complete with a separate Chef's Prep Counter and exposed Brick walls. The rear of the home is highlighted by the coziest of Sunrooms, fully heated for winter coffee mornings and surrounded by windows for lazy summer afternoon breezes. Custom built-ins matching the original trim round out this cheery escape Nook. And the Joy continues outside with a hard to come by fenced-in yard. Neighbors have individual planting beds, plus ample room for pets, sunbathing, and cornhole frisbees. This is the kind of building where turnover is limited w/ only 6 units, nobody is renting, and the community is strong. And What good is a beautiful space without the right location? Ravenswood is one of Chicago's most sought after neighborhoods for a reason: It is so quiet yet Everything is so close - around the corner to the Metra, a huge grocery store, assorted shopping and a number of dining establishments**Limited Showing Times.
