What an entertainer’s dream…
View this 1920 Victorian from the outside-candy-colored accents, intricate dormer detailing, charming bay window, gem-toned, stained-glass transom and quant, wrought-iron gate-and it will catch your attention while you approach the nostalgic red front porch. Head inside, however, you will find it to be an updated gem spilling over with those graceful winks to the past. The gas fireplace in the living room anchors the space with coveted 10’ ceilings reflecting the era, as well as the accompanying elongated windows, allowing a full view on both sides, and rich hardwoods that are found throughout. The kitchen and dining space create the heart of the home with the center marble island, ideal for dual bar stools and cookies after school. Built-ins with glass-front cabinets bring an elegant touch to the room while dual windows over the farmhouse sink give you the view to the backyard, but we’ll get to that… The main level primary suite, encompassed by those same front bay windows, has a welcome oak-mantel, gas fireplace for when the temperature drops. The primary bathroom houses a double vanity, claw foot tub and a dual-headed shower you may never want to leave. The accompanying customized closet fits absolutely everything. Rounding out the main floor is the convenient laundry room and half bath. Upstairs to the second level, you will find a cozy landing, perfect for a reading nook, and three spacious secondary bedrooms. The classically updated secondary bathroom has a double vanity and white hexagon and subway tiles. The very appealing artificial turf in the front and side creates an ideal low-maintenance yard that leads to the backyard oasis with a stone firepit, large patio and pergola-covered deck, complete with built-in seating. Al fresco dining is in your future with this entertainer’s oasis that is ready for a crowd. Enjoy the best street in Grant Park with this classic beauty, close by to the Zoo, Grant Park and the many restaurants and bars that make Grant Park such a fun hub. Come see it for yourself!
