There's Lincoln Park-and then there's historic East Lincoln Park, where stately brownstones recall the grandeur of old Chicago. Situated on a tree-lined stretch of Roslyn Place, less than a block from the bucolic splendor of Lincoln Park proper and walking distance to the lakefront, this Italianate-style 4+ bed/3.5 bath single-family home makes a romantic first impression courtesy of a sandstone facade, cast iron railings and overhanging eaves. Inside, 4,500 square feet seamlessly unfold, revealing an architecturally reconfigured floor plan for modern living. The main level flaunts a handsome foyer marked by hand-carved wainscoting and ornamental glass. In the adjacent living room, a meticulously restored ceiling relief, tall muntin-embellished windows and refinished hardwood floors showcase the home's rich materiality. The elongated dining room beyond features a big bay window, a cerulean tile-fronted original fireplace and a Beaux Arts chandelier-and links to a family room with coffered ceiling, custom drapery and a decorative fireplace mantel. The home's light and bright kitchen is appointed with sleek granite countertops, surplus cabinetry and an impressive appliances selection and wine fridge(Sub-Zero, Wolf and Miele). Upstairs, a natural light-kissed den with decorative crown molding shares the second floor with the home's massive primary suite. This oasis features yet another fireplace, an immense walk-in dressing room with Samsung washer/dryer, and an ensuite bath with granite-topped dual vanity, glass-encased twin shower and soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms are housed on the top floor, including one exceptionally large room lending itself to a variety of potential uses. Additional amenities include a private ombre slate outdoor patio and an expansive subterranean rec space with kitchenette, full bath and workshop/bonus room. Interior staircase to the roof with 360 degree views (potential option to add roofdeck). Deeded garage parking space included at 455 W. St. James Place.
