$5,995,000
Currently configured as two separate residences, this exceptional property offers the flexibility to function as a high-performing luxury investment or be effortlessly converted into one extraordinary single-family home. Built in 2016, 22 E. Elm spans more than 5,100 square feet across three levels plus a finished English basement and is currently arranged as an expansive 7-bedroom duplex and a beautifully appointed 4-bedroom upper simplex. By simply opening existing interior doorways, the home seamlessly transforms into a grand 11-bedroom single-family residence or multigenerational home-no construction required. Wrapped in a timeless limestone facade designed to endure for generations, the home pairs architectural elegance with remarkable versatility. The main level is anchored by a spectacular 22' x 26' living room with a fireplace and an equally impressive 22' x 19' dining room, creating an ideal setting for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Oversized windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting the rich hardwood flooring and sophisticated palette of wood, glass, and stone throughout. Many of the bedrooms are thoughtfully divided by sleek glass partition walls, allowing spaces to be effortlessly reconfigured as bedrooms, offices, studios, or expanded living areas to suit a variety of lifestyles. Two designer kitchens are appointed with premium appliances, oversized center islands, and custom cabinetry. The luxurious 22' x 18' primary suite occupies the second level alongside a generously scaled 20' x 18' secondary bedroom that rivals a second primary suite. An expansive private deck extends the living space outdoors, while the site offers the opportunity to build a 2- to 4-car garage. Located just steps from Rush Street's renowned dining and shopping, Oak Street Beach, and the lakefront trail, this is one of the Gold Coast's most distinctive offerings-equally compelling as a luxury residence, multigenerational home, or exceptional income-producing property. Located within the Ogden Elementary and Lincoln Park High School boundaries.
