Built in 1889, this stunning Wicker Park home underwent a meticulous renovation in 2018 that preserved the building's historic charm while seamlessly blending it with timeless design and an updated floor plan suited for today's living. Situated on a quiet tree-lined street on an oversized 32' x 125' lot just steps to everything Wicker Park has to offer. Upon entering, you immediately take in the historic details of the home which include 10' ceilings, oversized windows, original woodwork and 4 wood burning fireplaces. The intimate dining and living rooms can be closed off with the original pocket doors. The chef's kitchen features an oversized marble island which allows counter seating for 5 people and an abundance of prep space. It's the perfect space for entertaining, with the adjacent family room allowing ample space for gathering. The family room features a custom folding glass door which fully opens to the back deck and patio, combining indoor & outdoor living. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features an enormous walk-in closet and a stunning marble-clad bath complete with walk-in shower and soaking tub. Two additional generously sized bedrooms with en-suite baths and laundry room are also found on the 2nd floor. The basement, which was excavated to allow for increased ceiling height and improved natural light, features a large recreation/media room with built-in banquet and bar area. Two additional bedrooms and full bath are also found on the lower level. The secluded back patio provides additional living and entertaining space and can be enjoyed into the cooler months with help of the outdoor fireplace. Potential for new owners to add garage top deck for even more outdoor space.
