The home your clients have been anticipating! Sophisticated, renovated three-bedroom duplex on treelined street in A+ Wicker Park/East Village location. Two stories of east-facing windows invite pretty streetscape views and abundant light into the open living and dining areas. The home's many renovations begin with a fully reconfigured kitchen that enhances design, utility, storage and flow and an elegant new facade featuring KITH soft-close, shaker cabinetry in an appealing gray with quartz counters and a large island with a complementary, speckled granite countertop. Cabinets are accented with champagne bronze hardware. A double, black composite sink, Samsung stainless steel black appliances, new lighting from Lightology, a new wine refrigerator and custom window treatments complete the reformation. Hardwood flooring runs through both levels and were refinished and stained a rich cocoa to offset light silver satin walls that offer a generous canvas for the owners' impressive art. Fireplaces (wood-burning and gas) anchor the living spaces on both levels. The primary en-suite is situated down the hallway on the main level, offering a large, private retreat with abundant storage, a custom walk-in closet, a stone-clad bathroom with separate shower, dual vanity and jacuzzi tub. Oversized sliding door opens onto a private deck, one of two private outdoor spaces the owners have enjoyed. The wood-tread staircase descends to the lower level with a large, private patio, custom built-ins for the owners' extensive book collection and gas fireplace in the family room. Two well-sized bedrooms and full bathroom complete the footprint. The home features many other improvements, some of which include a full-gut renovation of the powder room and new lighting fixtures and LED-recessed lighting with dimmers in the living areas and primary bedroom. Additional storage room. The well-maintained, self-managed association has also undergone many preventive maintenance projects and improvements within the last few years. The 100-percent, owner-occupied building has no pet or rental restrictions. My clients rave about the friendliness of their neighbors within the building and surrounding area. Enjoy living steps from the heart of Wicker Park's diverse offering of cafes, restaurants, bars, shops, parks and other conveniences with a short walk to public transportation and easy access to the Kennedy.
