About this home

Welcome home! Experience the perfect blend of vintage grandeur and contemporary luxury in this sprawling 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath "penthouse" residence. Ideally situated in the heart of the Hyde Park/ Kenwood community, this 3rd-floor walkup is a rare gem waiting for you. Step inside to find breathtaking walls and beams clad in restored mahogany, complemented by original leaded glass windows that frame serene, tree-top views. The chef's kitchen-fully updated in 2018-is a culinary masterpiece featuring granite countertops, Subzero and Wolf appliances, and two spacious walk-in pantries. Flowing seamlessly from the living area is a magnificent, formal dining room designed for the ultimate host; it comfortably accommodates a table for 12 or more, making it the perfect stage for holiday gatherings and elegant dinner parties. The primary suite serves as a sun-drenched sanctuary, boasting a spa-like ensuite with a walk in shower and separate tub. Additional 3 bedrooms are spacious and include organized closets. For added convenience, the home includes in-unit laundry and a dedicated storage closet. Beyond your front door, you are steps away from the University of Chicago, lush parks, and the vibrant dining and shopping scene of Hyde Park. While this unit does not offer a parking space there is ample street parking and rental options nearby. Storage closet included! Don't let this be the one that got away.
