Property Description
This is the home you've been waiting for: full masonry, 5BR/4.2BA, on an oversized 29x152 lot, with the kind of space and storage that changes how you live-plus a true 3-car garage. Right in Ravenswood, with Lincoln Square, Andersonville, and the Loop all within easy reach. Outside is dialed in for how people actually use outdoor space: four composite decks/porches (front porch, upper-level porch, side deck off the kitchen with natural gas hookup, and a private deck off the primary), fenced & gated front and back yards, sprinkler system, and a 7-person Sundance Optima 880 hot tub-purpose-built outdoor space you'll actually enjoy. Inside, it lives big because it's built big: 10' ceilings on the main level and a dramatic 14' ceiling upstairs, hardwood floors, crown molding, custom window treatments, and natural light throughout. And the layout hits where it matters: the family room off the kitchen becomes the everyday headquarters-anchored by a gas/wood-burning fireplace and in-wall surround sound. The living room brings its own moment with a custom built-in surround framing another gas/wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen is the heartbeat-custom banquette seating, oversized island, quartz counters, and a Monogram appliance suite with double oven-made for real cooking and real gatherings. Upstairs delivers four bedrooms, including a primary retreat with walk-in closets (closet systems), steam shower + whirlpool tub, and radiant heated floors. The second bedroom is an ensuite with walk-in closet (closet system). Each 2nd-floor bathroom is skylit and finished with radiant heated floors, and the laundry is exactly where it should be-a dedicated 2nd-floor laundry room, no need to carry laundry downstairs. The lower level doesn't feel like "a basement." It's a full-on second act with 10' ceilings, heated floors throughout, a second kitchen with additional refrigerator/dishwasher plus beverage fridge, a bedroom with ensuite and walk-in closet (closet system), and a second laundry/utility room with oversized stainless sink. The rec room delivers a gas/wood-burning fireplace + in-wall surround sound, ready for movie nights, game days, and hosting without trying. Now the mic drop: the 3-car garage-fully insulated with epoxy floors, attic storage with pull-down ladder, slate wall system with cabinets, new doors, and two Level 2 EV charging ports... plus easy in, easy out maneuvering. And the day-to-day is effortless: approximately a 6-minute walk to Ravenswood Metra and Mariano's, two blocks to Winnemac Park, and about a 10-minute walk to the Brown Line. Big home energy. Big storage. A real 3-car garage. All Chicago.
