About this home
Every so often, a home comes along that makes you wonder if you need to pinch yourself. This is one of them. Set along one of Lincoln Park's most picturesque stretches of Magnolia Avenue, this beautifully reimagined brick worker's cottage blends timeless character with thoughtful modern design. Expanded and renovated with exceptional attention to detail, the home offers a rare combination of historic charm, everyday functionality, and understated luxury. Inside, the home's scale is immediately apparent. Beaming with natural light, the living and dining spaces flow effortlessly into an open floor plan designed for both entertaining and everyday living. At the center of it all is a beautifully appointed kitchen with top-tier appliances, a breakfast area, and a built-in workspace perfect for staying organized or working from home. A seamless addition creates a spacious family room along with a versatile office or bonus room that can easily adapt to your lifestyle. Upstairs, a striking staircase leads to two well-sized secondary bedrooms, an updated bath, convenient laundry, and a serene primary suite complete with a fireplace, custom walk-in closets, a spa-inspired bath, and a private balcony. An integrated whole-home sound system enhances everyday living, while the outdoor spaces offer a peaceful escape that feels worlds away from the city. Complete with a two-car garage and ideally located near Oscar Mayer School, neighborhood parks, acclaimed restaurants, and everything Lincoln Park has to offer, this is a home that perfectly balances historic charm with modern living. This is the one you've been waiting for.
