About this home

Phenomenal location in the heart of Bucktown! This light-filled, south-facing single family home was extensively and thoughtfully remodeled in 2017 and has since been meticulously updated, making it truly move-in ready. Recent improvements include a new roof, furnace and water heater (2025), new hardwood floors on the main level with hardwood refinished throughout, new skylights, tuckpointing and weatherproof sealing, a redone lower level bath and half bath, a new mini-split AC in the office, plus new kitchen appliances and custom window treatments (2024). The main level features a great open floor plan with a contemporary kitchen and desk area, and there is no wasted space. The dramatic master suite offers floor-to-ceiling windows, a walk-in closet and a luxurious bath with built-ins, skylight, separate oversized shower and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms on this level, along with new decking on the upstairs terrace. The top floor office/den leads to a private urban oasis with custom lighting, landscaping and views of downtown, perfect for entertaining! Large lower level family room, laundry room and guest suite. Incredible storage throughout, plus a two-car attached garage with plenty of extra room. Walk to the best of Bucktown!
