About This Home

Luxurious living awaits in this one-of-a-kind, turn of the century, 5 bedroom/3.1bath home in East Lakeview with all the character left intact and restored. There are grand room sizes and high ceilings, 2 of them coffered, 4 fireplaces, 2 bay windows, 2 original pocket doors, decorative wood moulding around all the doors & windows, and the original wood floors are still gorgeous. Double doors are prevalent throughout the home adding to it's sophistication. The home underwent a thoughtful renovation of the kitchen, primary bedroom, baths and the entire english basement adding a stunning wet bar, family/media/game room, another bedroom and full bath with a steam shower, laundry and storage room. In addition, a two story deck was added onto the back of the house for more outdoor space. The four fireplaces are gas direct vent and a built in sound system was added throughout the home with speakers in the ceilings or outside on the walls over the decks. The chef's kitchen features Sub-Zero/Wolf stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, island, breakfast nook, wine cooler and two sinks with touch activated faucets. The primary bedroom suite has a fireplace, a walk-in closet and a walk-in shower, dual sinks, a soaking tub and it even has a skylight. Right off the primary bedroom is a 10' x 20' balcony with privacy walls, speakers, lighting and a ceiling fan. The same sized deck is off of the kitchen below that leads to the newly landscaped patio by Crew Landscaping. Additionally, the home is equipped with dual-zone heating, an intercom system, water softener, laundry chutes and a central vacuum system. The home is blocks to the Lakefront and Lake Shore Drive, the red, brown and purple lines at Belmont and around the corner from top rated restaurants, shops, bars and entertainment. The vibrant central city locale of east Lakeview awaits.
