Property Description
Need a happy distraction to get you through these dark, bitterly cold days? Come feel the magic of this beautiful Alta Vista Terrace home! Three levels of luxuriously restored, light-filled space overlooks Kelly Park. Open, airy rooms have 9'+ ceilings, two fireplaces, hardwood floors, custom millwork, natural stone tile and paneled doors with art glass transoms. The fully paved backyard with an electronic gate opens for secure parking, with lots of space for summer bbqs, gardening and enjoying the crowd roar from nearby Wrigley Field. * * * The open kitchen has custom painted cabinetry, quartz countertops and Wolf, Viking and SubZero appliances. Relax at the enormous island and soak up the sun shining through floor-to-ceiling windows opening to the backyard. The serene primary suite has it's own 10'x6' terrace, a fully outfitted walk-in closet with hook-up for a second washer/dryer plus a luxury bath for stay-at-home spa days. The second bedroom is ensuite, too! * * * Radiant heat warms the lower level family room, guest room and full bath - all with nearly 8' ceilings. Generous laundry room with utility sink and access to the backyard for muddy paws. * * * The home's abundant, thoughtfully designed closets and extra storage will hold all your stuff! Custom window treatments, too. * * * No stress. No projects. Just move-in and make yourself at home on Chicago's historic "Street of Forty Doors". This is one of the 40 London-style row homes built by SE Gross 125 yrs ago. Included on the National Register of Historic Places, it was the first City of Chicago Residential Landmark District.
