Property Description
Experience a rare architectural legacy at 1957 West Schiller, a historic Italianate row house overlooking happening Wicker Park. Occupying an extraordinary 163-foot deep lot-nearly 30 percent larger than standard-this 5,000+ square foot residence offers an unparalleled urban compound opportunity. The main level impresses with 11-foot ceilings, intricate vintage millwork, and rich hardwood floors, creating a seamless flow for entertaining. A gourmet chef's kitchen features professional-grade appliances, while the second level serves as a private sanctuary, including a primary suite with a classic claw-foot tub. An expansive unfinished basement already plumbed for a bathroom-offering immediate equity potential for a bedroom, home gym, media room, or wellness suite. Outside, the deep lot provides for a wonderful garden retreat and a two-car garage. This property presents a rare, once-in-a-generation opportunity to preserve a piece of Chicago's architectural legacy. Situated in a premier park-facing location, the home offers limitless potential for a bespoke restoration or a visionary modern expansion.
