Property Description
Located just three blocks from the University of Chicago, this elegant contemporary home is quietly tucked away on a charming tree-lined street. Spanning four levels, the residence offers gracious living spaces, sophisticated design, and effortless access to the vibrant shops, restaurants, and cultural destinations of the neighborhood. Inside, spacious bedrooms, generous closets, and meticulous attention to detail create a home that is as comfortable as it is beautiful. The dramatic living room features soaring 14-foot ceilings and a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light, highlighting the open-concept layout. The sleek, chef's kitchen blends form and function with dual-toned cabinetry, paneled Fisher & Paykel appliances, a 36-inch range, and a stunning waterfall island with seating for four. The adjoining dining area opens to a private balcony through a Euro tilt-and-turn door, framed by a picturesque wall of windows. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths. The private third-floor primary suite is a true retreat, featuring dual walk-in closets and a luxurious spa bath with a freestanding soaking tub and oversized glass-enclosed shower. From this level, enjoy direct access to the rooftop deck. Two generously sized bedrooms on the second floor share a beautifully appointed full bath, while the lower level offers a spacious family room-or optional fourth bedroom-with its own ensuite bath. Engineered for comfort and efficiency, the home includes dual Nest-controlled HVAC systems, a tankless water heater, full masonry construction-including solid masonry walls between homes-and a two-car heated attached garage. Just minutes from the university and Hyde Park's beloved bookstores, restaurants and lakefront attractions, this exceptional home perfectly balances modern luxury with neighborhood charm-a truly stunning urban retreat.
