Property Description
Prime Bucktown location! Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Wabansia and just steps from the best of Damen and North Aves, this stunning four-story home impresses from the moment you enter. Soaring 12-foot ceilings set the stage for grand formal living and dining spaces, featuring freshly refinished hardwood floors and a crisp, modern paint palette. The inviting living room is anchored by a striking stone fireplace and flooded with natural light through dramatic 10-foot French doors. The chef's kitchen is a true centerpiece-thoughtfully designed and impeccably appointed with a 8-burner Viking range, oversized stainless steel Sub Zero refrigerator, and freshly refinished custom cabinetry. A substantial stone island creates a natural gathering place, complemented by abundant prep space and seamless flow for entertaining. Outdoor living reaches new heights with four distinct spaces, including three rooftop decks offering sweeping skyline views and a newly constructed garage rooftop deck-an exceptional setting for elevated outdoor dining and private entertaining. The attached garage further enhances both convenience and exclusivity. The second level is dedicated to a serene, south-facing primary suite, where floor-to-ceiling windows and a Juliet balcony invite in beautiful natural light. The suite offers three closets, including a generous walk-in, and a spa-caliber bath featuring dual marble vanities, a soaking whirlpool tub, and an oversized double shower. The third level offers versatility-currently styled as a private guest suite with ensuite bath, it also serves beautifully as a home office or lounge. Two rooftop terraces with southeast and northwest exposures provide breathtaking panoramic views of the Chicago skyline and sunsets. The lower level is equally impressive, featuring a spacious recreation room with a gas fireplace, an additional bedroom, and a full bath-perfectly suited for guests, extended stays, or an au pair. A full-size laundry room offers both functionality and ample storage. For even more convenience, there's a 2nd laundry room on the 3rd level! This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained, design-forward home in one of Bucktown's most coveted locations-where luxury, scale, and lifestyle converge!
