Property Description
A must see, rarely available historic single-family rowhome located on one of Taylor Street's most exclusive streets. Built in 1871 and thoughtfully remodeled over the years keeping many original details including three marble operating gas fireplaces, pocket doors and crown molding. An elegant front door entryway leads to formal sitting room, elegant dining room and open concept kitchen with custom built cabinetry offering plenty of thoughtful storage, with a lovely afternoon sun-filled sitting room. High ceilings throughout the first and second floors. The second level has three bedrooms and a walk-in closet; the main bedroom includes a fireplace and ensuite bathroom, two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom with a laundry room enclosed. The lower level has the fourth bedroom and the third full bathroom, a family room, two large storage spaces and back entry. The front entry remains outside but was drywalled to create storage but could be opened to convert back to the original garden unit apartment. The home leads out on two levels into a lovely shaded, paved backyard and has a two car garage. This perfect city-centered home is walking distance to Taylor Street's many popular restaurants, close to both Arrigo Park and Sheridan Park with popular day camps, legendary kids flag football and adult health classes, an indoor pool and tennis courts; it's close to the Westside Medical District, the United Center, public transportation, and quick access to I290.
