This one is truly special! One of a kind 5 bedroom home tucked away on a private dead-end street, full of character, charm, and history dating back to 1895. From the movie worthy staircase and tall ceilings to the warm, timeless details throughout, this home has the "wow factor". The library has beautiful floor to ceiling wood built in shelving and a ladder to reach the highest/farthest shelves easily. All 5 bedrooms are on the second level. Huge primary suite with additional sitting room attached. Enjoy views of the Willis Tower (Sears Tower) right outside your bedroom window. Incredible outdoor living space with a front porch, back deck, huge deck above the two-car garage, stone flower beds, and grassy yard space in the front and back fully fenced. Full unfinished walked out basement great for storage. Ideal location-a block to Taylor St., close to downtown, restaurants, shops, parks, the Medical District, Fulton Market and exciting new approved projects, including 1901. Well loved by every owner, with SO many updates throughout. Newer: siding, added dual zoned AC, added fireplace, all new/newer stainless steel kitchen appliances, newer dual zoned furnaces, hot water heater, some windows, professional landscaping--the list goes on, see dropdown for the full list.
