Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined one-way street in Edgewater, this classic Chicago Bungalow has been thoughtfully reimagined as a two-story 5-bedroom, 4 full bathroom home. Enter through the vestibule with its original tile floor and stately vintage pier mirror. Once inside, you'll appreciate how responsibly this historic bungalow has been combined with all every modern comfort and convenience. Formal living and dining rooms flow seamlessly to the open, casual great room. This layout offers separated spaces while at the same time features a sightline from the front of the home out the rear windows. A chef's kitchen boasts professional grade appliances including Sub-Zero refrigerator, 5-burner gas range top, wall oven and microwave. All of which is complemented by beautiful neutral cream cabinetry, endless brand new quartz counters, ample storage, and a ceiling-mounted exhaust hood. The kitchen features a peninsula with adjacent wet bar, sink and additional storage, and is open to the large family room. This combined 'great room' space has three sunny exposures and leads directly to a new rear deck and lush backyard. A guest bedroom and euro-style full bathroom round out the main level. Head upstairs past the gas fireplace and original stained-glass window to three bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a large laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer, sink, long folding counter, and impressive storage. The front bedroom has architecturally interesting rooflines creating a cozy and functional space while maintaining the charm of the original Craftsman bungalow facade. The palatial owner's suite boasts a huge walk-in closet and 17'x 9' bathroom with heated floors, two sinks, 2-person jetted tub, and over-sized glass-walled shower with an 'L' shaped bench perfect for enjoying the steam feature. The finished lower level includes a large family room, kitchen (currently configured as a second laundry room), bedroom, full bathroom, bonus room perfect for home gym or project space, and an enormous utility and storage room. With direct exterior access, the lower level also makes for a perfect vacation rental easily segregated from the rest of the home. Dual zoned HVAC. Wood-interior, extruded aluminum exterior thermal windows. Hardwood floors throughout the home above grade. 2-car garage. 2 blocks to the red line. 1 block to Broadway buses.
