Step into a piece of Chicago history with this meticulously updated residence, circa 1910. Originally built by a discerning homeowner who chose the beloved bungalow style for this expansive, extra-wide lot, the updates seamlessly blend historic charm with modern luxury. A generous setback from the street creates a sense of privacy and grandeur, offering a welcoming approach to the home. Similarly, the oversized rear yard provides a rare urban oasis with ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, and entertaining. A welcoming feature of this home is the expansive front porch, subtly screened by a mature Japanese maple. It's perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing on a sunny spring afternoon while you enjoy the neighborhood's charm and substantial front yard. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined while preserving its original character. The main level boasts a high-end, open kitchen featuring custom white and walnut cabinetry with functional, high-end drawer and pantry pull-out hardware. Built-in appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a perfect combination of form and function for culinary enthusiasts and entertaining. Make dinner while taking in a view of the rear yard.
