Set on an enormous 65×165 lot on a tree-lined street in the idyllic Hutchinson Historic District, this magnificent gated estate – rich in original detailing and filled with abundant natural light – presents the opportunity for wonderfully grand entertaining coupled with the ease and conveniences of modern day living. Enter the home through a private drive and Porte cochere, and savor the priceless treasures that await: grand rooms filled with intricate carved moldings, detailed leaded windows, and original built-ins. The entry hall is flanked by a formal dining room on one side and a fabulous living room centered on a breathtaking fireplace on the other. Spanning the entire width of the front of the house is a lovely glassed-in porch with windows overlooking the grounds and leafy streetscape. The white chef’s kitchen has island seating and opens to a charming breakfast nook and to the unbelievable terrace and yard, a rarity in the city. A gracious staircase leads to the second floor with four large bedrooms and three baths including a lovely primary suite with a large walk-in closet. The third floor offers amazing flexibility with a large recreation room, bedroom w/kitchenette, and full bath. The dry unfinished basement has high ceilings and the opportunity for additional flex space depending on your needs. A designer’s own home, this special offering presents the ideal suburban-like setting just steps from the joys of Chicago’s dynamic lakefront trails, beaches, and parks.
