Property Description
Modern Luxury Meets South Shore Charm - Welcome to 7440 S Oglesby Ave! Step into elevated city living at 7440 South Oglesby Avenue - a bold, design-forward reimagining of the classic Chicago brick bungalow, nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street in the vibrant South Shore neighborhood. This 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom, nearly 3,000 sq ft home delivers a seamless fusion of timeless architecture and high-end, contemporary finishes. From the moment you walk in, the light-filled open layout welcomes you with soaring ceilings, an eye-catching chandelier, and a sleek fireplace that anchors the living space. The brand-new light oak flooring and modern climate-control windows infuse the home with warmth and energy-efficient comfort. 2-inch white slat blinds provide clean, stylish privacy throughout. At the heart of the home lies a true chef's kitchen - featuring Silestone Miami White quartz waterfall countertops, full-height backsplash, and custom ceiling-height shaker cabinetry with glass-pane accents. A 14-foot center island with a Ruvati 45-inch workstation sink, dual faucets, and seating for six sets the stage for both entertaining and everyday living. The butler's pantry with beverage cooler makes hosting effortless, and a 48-inch, 8-burner gas range anchors the premium stainless steel appliance package. A flexible main-floor bedroom or office, adjacent to a stunning spa-like bath with rainfall shower, adds function and flexibility. Don't miss the thoughtfully designed mudroom and oversized laundry room, fully outfitted with a Samsung front-load washer/dryer, utility sink, and custom organization. Upstairs...two luxe en-suite bedrooms offer the ultimate urban retreat, each with walk-in closets and spa-inspired bathrooms designed for relaxation. The custom staircase, with modern glass panel railings, makes a bold architectural statement as you ascend. The fully finished lower level extends the living space with a large recreation room, two additional bedrooms, a dedicated home gym/flex room, and a beautifully appointed full bath - ideal for guests, extended family, or a live/work setup. Step outside to a private, fenced-in backyard oasis with brand-new landscaping, decorative river rock, and a spacious back deck made for entertaining under the stars. The underground sprinkler system keeps everything lush, while the two-car garage with luxury floor tile offers secure parking and extra storage. For peace of mind, the property is equipped with 5 exterior Arlo security cameras and a Vivint smart security system, with one year of monitoring included. Location? Unmatched. You're minutes from Lake Shore Drive, the lakefront, South Shore Cultural Center, golf courses, parks, museums, Obama Presidential Center, University of Chicago, and the Quantum Computing campus. Enjoy nearby cafes, restaurants, and transit access that connects you seamlessly to downtown and beyond. 7440 S Oglesby isn't just a home - it's a lifestyle upgrade.
