Property Description
Welcome to this stately Greystone row house in Chicago's architecturally rich and historic Hyde Park-Kenwood District. Offering an impressive 3,378 sq/ft across three stories, this timeless 4 bed, 3.1 bath residence presents a rare opportunity for inspired design or adaptive reuse. Many original architectural details remain including coffered ceilings, custom windows and millwork and original hardwood flooring, all reflecting the home's classic craftmanship. A full basement provides excellent potential for additional finished living space. Ideally located within walking distance to shopping and restaurants, parks, Kenwood Academy, the Metra, the University of Chicago and the lakefront, this property combines historic charm with everyday convenience. Formerly operated as an early learning center, the building is equipped with commercial grade fire protection, opening the door to alternative uses such as a day care, group home, or sober living house (buyer to verify permitted uses). A truly unique offering in one of Chicago's most distinguished neighborhoods.
