660 W Melrose St. #1

This immaculate and luxurious East Lakeview duplex is all brick and extra wide (34.5 feet!). Offering four bedrooms and three full baths, it includes an attached heated garage, and features an incredibly rare 1000 square foot, professionally landscaped, private terrace, which flows directly off the main living space. A true sanctuary in the city. This home makes a statement from the moment you set foot onto the mosaic inlay foyer. No detail was spared - rich hardwood flooring, crown molding, coffered ceilings, and wainscoting enhance the main level. Entertaining is a joy in the open-concept kitchen, living and dining room. Surround yourself with classic white cabinetry, natural stone countertops, Sub-Zero Fridge, Wolf Range, wet bar and an oversized kitchen island. Cozy up in front of the gas fireplace or retreat to one of the four bedrooms - two on the main floor and two on the lower level. The primary suite is flooded with natural sunlight from two south-facing, French latticed windows which are customized with blackout window treatments. Enjoy the organized walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom with marble tile, double sink vanity and a luxurious steam shower. Appreciate the little luxuries: snowmelt heated driveway and front stairs (never shovel again!), surround sound wiring, lower-level radiant heated tile flooring, and concrete between the floors for soundproofing. A dedicated laundry room offers a side-by-side washer/dryer, cabinet storage, and a utility sink. Set in the heart of East Lakeview, this is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the city - and Melrose is one of the best blocks. Nestled among the shopping, boutiques and gyms of both Broadway and Halsted, it's a pedestrian's paradise! The lakefront and Belmont Harbor are only minutes away. Commuting is as good as it gets with quick access to Lake Shore Drive, numerous bus lines and the Brown/Purple/Red Line CTA stop at Belmont. Nettlehorst Elementary is one of the top elementary schools in the city with a charming presence on the block. Just steps from your door - don't miss the delightful weekend farmers' market that brings organic farmers from all over the region. 660 West Melrose is truly an amazing location to call home!
