Description
As featured in Crain’s, this AIA award-winning Modernist home is both an architectural and technological feat. Spanning a double lot, the residence is discreetly set behind an understated facade that blends seamlessly into the streetscape. Inside, the warm modern design reveals extraordinary volume, abundant natural light, exceptional privacy, and a rare connection to the outdoors. Distinctive design elements include a walnut central staircase, Venetian plaster walls, finely crafted millwork, oversized windows, translucent panels, specialty lighting, custom shelving with generous storage, and thoughtfully engineered mechanical systems that are efficient, economical, and whisper-quiet. The main living level was created for entertaining, offering versatile gathering spaces: a dramatic two-story living room, oversized dining room, media room, centrally located chef’s kitchen with extensive storage and premium appliances, and a cozy family room. A deck and catwalk extend to a larger Ipe deck shaded by full-sized trees above the four-car garage. Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a luxurious contemporary bath, a hall bath, and a study overlooking the living room. The entry level provides a private in-law suite with sitting room, bedroom, en-suite bath, and adjacent morning kitchen, along with an office, workroom/studio, laundry, and mudroom that opens to a large, fenced backyard bordered by magnificent mature trees. A covered walkway connects to the four-car garage; there is additional gated parking in the backyard. The basement features a large recreation/exercise room, a climate-controlled wine cellar, extensive storage, and the home’s mechanical systems. Conceived by a celebrated architect/owner, whose lineage is rooted in Chicago’s most esteemed design traditions, this home is a singular offering – impossible to replicate and truly priceless.
