Public Showings OH Sunday 7/19 10:30 AM to 12:30PM. Welcome to the Chicago Lifestyle, an Edgewater story. Some homes are built. This one was crafted, and more than a century later it still shows. Set on the second floor of an intimate 1912 building in the Edgewater Glen pocket, this residence opens to the kind of vintage character that is nearly impossible to reproduce: a coffered box beam ceiling in the dining room, rich quarter sawn oak millwork wrapping every room, Prairie style leaded and stained glass windows glowing beside the living room fireplace, solid wood doors, and original mission style light fixtures that have been here since the beginning. It has history, and it wears it beautifully. What makes it rare is the light. The home carries four exposures, and because the building sits farther from its neighbors than most, sunlight pours in from morning to evening and reaches into every room. Pair that with high ceilings, oversized windows, and gleaming hardwood floors, and you get a space that feels open, airy, and larger than its footprint. The separate, well defined rooms give it the rhythm and privacy of a single family home rather than a typical flat. A second bedroom flexes easily as a home office or guest room, and generous closets, two of them fitted with Elfa systems, keep daily life effortless. The updates are where old soul meets easy living. The 2025 designer kitchen was reimagined from the layout up, with all new stainless appliances, quartz counters, warm brass hardware, crisp cabinetry, and a glazed green tile backsplash that nods to the home's Arts and Crafts roots. The 2024 designer bath layers soft green tile, a walnut vanity, and a classic soaking tub. Floors were refinished, rooms were painted in collaboration with a designer, and nearly every window was replaced in 2024. Best of all, this unit runs on its own furnace and central air, both recently installed, so comfort is fully in your control. Everyday living is handled. Enjoy in unit laundry, private storage, and a covered rear deck that sits right in the treetops, an easy place to slow down with morning coffee or unwind at dusk. Below, a shared garden and green backyard give you room to breathe. This is a proud, owner occupied building, and the monthly assessment covers water, trash, insurance, landscaping, and common utilities. Then there is Edgewater itself: green, established, and genuinely friendly. You are moments from the Red Line and Broadway bus routes, with easy street parking and quick access across the city. Walk to a morning cup at Rivers and Roads Cafe, gather over from scratch bread and sandwiches at Sauce and Bread Kitchen, or settle in for sushi at Nori. Spend a Saturday browsing the shops along Broadway and Clark, wandering to the lakefront a few blocks east, or catching the beloved neighborhood garden walk each July. It is the rare place that feels leafy and calm while keeping the whole city within reach. Vintage soul, modern ease, and light everywhere you look. This is Edgewater living, and it is ready for you.

Welcome to the Chicago Lifestyle, an Edgewater Glen story. There is a particular kind of light that only a half courtyard building can offer. Morning sun through east-facing glass, afternoon warmth from the west, and the steady, shifting glow that makes a home feel alive from the moment you wake until the last quiet hours of evening. This is that kind of home. A 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence on a high first floor, set within a boutique six-unit building on one of Edgewater Glen's most peaceful, tree-lined blocks. Four exposures. Light from every direction. It lives, quite simply, like a real home. Step inside and the Arts and Crafts character announces itself with grace: stained glass windows casting soft color across original details, a brick fireplace anchored by terracotta tile, and custom built-ins that speak to the craftsmanship of a different era. The living room flows naturally into a separate dining room defined by its coffered ceiling and three generous windows overlooking the courtyard's canopy of mature pear and apricot trees. In summer, that view becomes something almost meditative: layers of green catching the breeze, and the sound of birdsong filtering through the glass. The eat-in kitchen is both functional and warm, with a window above the sink that frames yet another vantage point of natural light. Appliances were replaced in 2021 and the AC unit is newer as of 2023. Throughout the home, nine-foot ceilings amplify the sense of space, while every closet has been fitted with custom organizational systems that maximize storage intentionally. In-unit laundry lives within a generously sized closet, large enough to double as a pantry, a feature that is remarkably hard to find in the city. Out back, a private patio offers a retreat that blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living. Ideal for morning coffee, summer entertaining, or simply sitting with the quiet. The seller hosted gatherings here for years, including a Thanksgiving for fifteen, and the space delivered every time. The building itself is owner-occupied with no rental units, and it shows in the meticulous care of the common areas, the basement storage, and the dedicated bike room. Street parking is ample along the block. And then there is the neighborhood. Edgewater Glen was added to the National Register of Historic Places in December 2024, a recognition of the architectural significance of its early 20th-century homes, its heritage trees, and its enduring community spirit. Flanked by three commercial corridors, Devon, Broadway, and Clark, the location offers an abundance of dining, shopping, and culture within a short walk. Nori. Flaco's Tacos. Indie Cafe. Lickity Split. Sauce and Bread Kitchen for Saturday morning coffee. Andersonville's Fiya, Little Bad Wolf, Will's Martini Bar, and The Nook are just minutes away. Transit is effortless: the Granville Red Line stop, the new Peterson Metra station, and multiple bus lines connect you to the rest of the city with ease. And the lakefront, with its beaches, trails, and the contemplative grounds near Loyola's campus, is close enough to be part of your daily routine, not just an occasional destination. This is a home where the light tells you what time it is. Where the details reward a closer look. Where the neighborhood feels both vibrant and calm, depending on what you need it to be. This is the Chicago Lifestyle.

This jewel of design, classic row home in Chicago's sought-after Gold Coast sits on a tree-lined street, boasting five bedrooms + den, three and a half baths, and four fireplaces throughout. Built in the late 19th century, the limestone residence is placed in a block of nine known as the Fairbank Row Houses named after a high-society couple, Kellogg and Janet Ayer Fairbank. The pair lived in one of the residences and likely owned others. Prolific architect David Adler also lived in one of the homes as a newlywed; he may even be the reason steps that originally led from the sidewalk to the homes' second level were eventually removed. Given its historical status, this incredibly updated estate benefits from a select homeowner tax exemption. Greeted by a gated, well-manicured garden and first-class foyer, soaring bay windows and French doors to a grand patio send light throughout the generously-sized living spaces. The eat-in kitchen features herringbone flooring, a built-in electric fireplace, an in-island Sharp drawer microwave, a top-of-the-line Thermador oven, stainless steel Kohler refrigerator, and access to a mudroom creating two entrances to the impressive, private patio pristinely built for indoor/outdoor living. The second floor of the estate continues expansive ceiling height, deep crown moldings, and hardwood flooring, beginning with a laddered wet bar equipped with a built-in icemaker and combined, half-beverage half-wine cooler. The neighboring library with its own wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in bookshelves creates a relaxing space that remains flooded in light by floor-to-ceiling windows. Adjoined is a second-level great room that mirrors the bay windows of the lower level, also featuring a wood-burning fireplace and large scale, double-door entrances with unique and charming fixtures. The primary suite is located on the third level, featuring iconic shutters on its bay windows, a walk-in closet with well appointed, custom built-in organization systems, and a marble mantle fireplace. The marble-floored primary bath's highlights include heated floors, a heated towel bar, and a Riobel soaking tub, Rainshower, and double sinks set in smooth marble to create ease of living. An expansive secondary suite with full bath furnished with a Grohe faucet and shower also joins this floor. The final, fourth level is a retreat of three more bedrooms and a den. All full baths feature heated, marble flooring, marble countertops, and towel racks for luxurious, spa experiences on the day to day. The uppermost bath also has a stunning skylight, flooding the high-ceiled space in sunlight. Enhancing everyday life is a 2-car garage, laundry on the third floor with LG's bright red stackable system for ease of access, full basement, two HVAC systems, radiant heating throughout, and a NuTone intercom system sustaining connection throughout the estate. Offering a prime location and appointed for great comfort, this gem of a home is ready for blissful living.

Once home to great American author Ernest Hemingway and walking distance to Chicago's amazing lakefront, 1239 N. Dearborn St. is a 7 bed/6.5 bath, historic brownstone in the heart of the Gold Coast with three decks, a patio, a coach house and a two-car garage. Originally built in 1898 and located on a 3,300-square-foot lot that sits on a lovely, tree-lined stretch of Dearborn, amid some of Chicago's finest homes, the literary history here is enchanting: After their honeymoon in 1921, Hemingway and his wife Hadley lived in an apartment on the fourth floor before moving to Paris, where he wrote "The Sun Also Rises," "A Farewell to Arms," and his memoir, "A Moveable Feast." Most recently situated as a multifamily divided up into rentals, the entire brownstone plus coach house is now for sale, presenting endless possibilities as an investment property including the option to renovate to transform its beautiful bones into a multilevel, single-family home. The brick and limestone exterior has been maintained to uphold its stately, turn-of-the-century character, including tall arched windows and decorative stonework. Inside, the main level flaunts high ceilings, original hardwood floors and millwork details across a foyer, a light-filled formal living room, a dining room with fireplace, a back-of-the-house kitchen, and a bonus space that links to two decks (9'4" x 15'2" and 12'7" x 7'4"). Upstairs, the second level is perfect for a deluxe primary suite and currently features three bedrooms (two that are ensuite, one with a balcony and another with a walk-in closet), two full baths, and upstairs laundry. The top level reveals three additional bedrooms, two more full baths, and a bonus space that's ideal for a den or office. Downstairs, the ground level features two studio spaces (one with a kitchenette) that connect to a large outdoor patio (23'5" x 24'10"). Plus, there's a basement level with more bonus space, yet another full bath, a laundry room, utilities, and abundant storage. Situated above the detached garage, the bi-level coach house features a foyer, a living room, a kitchen, three bedrooms and a full bath, and has the potential to be a fabulous standalone apartment for in-laws, extended-stay guests or an au pair. With a spectacular location that's steps from the 3 Arts Club and Green City Market's outdoor farmers market, not to mention Chicago's most prestigious schools and world-class dining and shopping along the Mag Mile and Oak Street, 1239 N.

A rare piece of Chicago's history, the Thompson House at 915 N. Dearborn stands as one of the Gold Coast's original architectural treasures. Designed in 1888 by Cobb & Frost, the renowned architects behind the Newberry Library and University of Chicago, this grand residence was among the first to define the Gold Coast neighborhood after the Great Chicago Fire. For the next century, it was owned and used by the Scottish Rite. The property was meticulously restored by its current owner beginning in 2009, blending 19th-century grandeur with modern luxury. The Thompson House is now a nationally registered Historic Landmark. This masterpiece preserves its rich past while offering a remarkably livable floor plan where history, elegance, and everyday comfort coexist effortlessly. Constructed from refurbished exterior sgraffito walls and granite mosaic, this 5-bedroom, 4.2-bathroom home spans 13,400 square feet, with an additional 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom carriage house above the 3-car garage. This home showcases exceptional craftsmanship with one-of-a-kind finishes and details throughout. Some of the elements include a refurbished original mosaic floor, custom millwork, hand-carved marble fireplaces from Italy, and custom stained glass. Throughout the home, all wood features, including beams, doors, and trim, are custom made from solid Honduras Mahogany, with intricate touches such as paneling and carving.

The adjacent great room is full of natural light from the large, curved windows and south and west exposures. The great room has earned its name sake with a Swarovski crystal chandelier, a hand-carved, book-matched onyx fireplace from Pakistan, and exquisite mahogany woodwork with in-wall cabinetry. Silk wall coverings and marble flooring add to the grandeur. On the opposite side of the foyer you will find the kitchen overlooking the walled courtyard with fountains and fireplace. The kitchen area features two dining areas, high-end appliances, a large island, custom cabinetry, and a laundry room tucked away.

The lower level is designed for relaxation and entertainment, featuring two seating areas, a bar, and a spa. The media area includes a hand-carved Italian Botticino marble fireplace and marble floors with bronze inlay. The galley bar offers an in-wall wine display, and the spa features a sauna, jacuzzi, steam suite, spa dressing rooms, a massage and zen room, and an additional laundry area.

This beautifully renovated home was a part of Hyde Park's first planned community, built way back in the 1880s, and then known as Rosalie Villas. To this day Harper Avenue remains one of the neighborhood's most special and coveted locations. When the current owners purchased 5740, the house needed complete renovation. The planning was undertaken thoughtfully, preserving the character of 19th century details while upgrading the house for modern living. After taking the interior down to the studs, the house now offers all new electrical and plumbing, new windows, zoned air conditioning and forced-air heating, new oak flooring throughout, new bathrooms, large walk-in closets, a chef's kitchen, main level powder room, and fully finished lower level. The front door opens into the foyer where one is immediately impressed with spaciousness; this is a warm and welcoming house with an open floor plan that defies its age. Light fills the living and adjacent dining room, that flow into the large chef's kitchen, enhanced by a family room and breakfast area overlooking the verdant back yard. Moving up the beautifully detailed staircase accented by original stained glass, one enters a spacious hallway with built-in bookshelves that provides a welcoming landing to three bedrooms and two luxurious full baths on this, the second level. The entire third floor has been transformed from an attic/maid's quarters into handsomely finished space, with two bedrooms and a full bath. Heading downstairs, the lower level was recently completed and offers a family room, storage, a laundry room (washer/dryer also on the second level), and a full bath. And the property offers a rarity on the block, a garage. Located a short walk from the University of Chicago, the Laboratory Schools and all Hyde Park has to offer......! And now just a bit of background history. Remarkably, nearly all the Queen Anne and shingle-style homes on Harper are still standing nearly a century and a half after completion. Years before the founding of the University of Chicago, the development was established by Rosalie Buckingham, a wealthy heiress whose name Chicagoans will likely recognize from Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park, named for Rosalie's cousin. In 1883, she acquired two city blocks in rapidly expanding Hyde Park Township, which was then still a separate suburb. Solon S. Beman, who had just designed Chicago's most famous planned community Pullman, was hired to oversee a plan for 42 houses for her. We do not know the architect of 5740 Rosalie Court, but early records list attorney Henry Thurston Chace as the home's fist resident. All of this is to say .... today Harper Avenue remains a very, very special place.

To this day, Harper Avenue remains one of Hyde Park's most special and coveted locations. When the current owners purchased 5724, the house has been in the hands of the same family for the forty-two years. They then undertook a thoughtful renovation, preserving the character of 19th century details while upgrading the house for modern living. With new electrical, zoned air conditioning, new hot water heater, water filtration system, new bathroom, new flooring and lighting, and a completion of the entire third level (formerly an unfinished attic) - the house has been beautifully updated. The large front porch opens into the foyer, where one is immediately impressed with spaciousness. This is a warm and welcoming house, with an open floor plan that defies its age. Light fills the living and family rooms; a lovely separate dining room, large kitchen with pantry, breakfast room and powder room complete this level. The breakfast room opens to a deck that overlooks the lush back yard. Moving up the beautifully detailed staircase, there are four bedrooms that can be used in a variety of ways, and two full baths. From there one sees a remarkable transformation - the entire third level has been renovated into handsomely finished flexible space. The open area is accented by two smaller rooms and under the eaves is a charming space to relax. Heading downstairs, the lower level is a work in progress but offers all new windows, storage, a laundry room with new washer/dryer and full size freezer, and the space is plumbed for a full bath. The owners are offering a home warranty plan for all appliances. And the property offers a rarity on the block, a large two-car garage. Located a short walk from the University of Chicago, the Laboratory Schools and all Hyde Park has to offer. And now just a bit of background history. Remarkably, nearly all of the Queen Anne and shingle-style homes on Harper are still standing nearly a century and a half later. Years before the founding of the University of Chicago, the development was established by Rosalie Buckingham, a wealthy heiress whose name Chicagoans will likely recognize from Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park, named for Rosalie's cousin. As she neared the age of twenty-five, Rosalie decided to become a property developer in the rapidly expanding Hyde Park Township, which was then still a separate suburb. In 1883, she acquired two city blocks from 57th Street to 59th Street near the Illinois Central tracks and hired Solon S. Beman, who had just designed Chicago's most famous planned community Pullman, to oversee a plan for her land. Beman provided the overall vision and there were rules that homeowners and other architects had to follow for each of the 42 houses. This led to the continuity of size and style of homes visible and appreciated to this day. We do not know the architect of 5724 Rosalie Court, but early records list attorney Addison Beardsley as the resident. All of this is to say .... 5724 Harper is one very special place.

Mid Century Modern living at its best. Completely updated townhome in the Common Corporation Townhouse enclave that was built in 1965 designed by a Harry Weese acolyte, Ezra Gordon. It is nestled right behind the Kimbark Plaza which boasts restaurants, shops, a CVS and the famed Hyde Park Produce store. Some of the homes face Kimbark, but this house faces south to the mature tree filled private walled courtyard. Freshly painted, it has a cool, open 60's feel with gleaming hardwood floors on both the main level, stairs and the upper level. The staircase is an architectural focal point encased in vertical oak planking rising from floor to ceiling in the living room. A major renovation in 2021 brought this house to the new century standard. The dining room chandelier is a recent installation and will stay with the house. The kitchen has white painted wooden shaker cabinets, black stainless appliances including the dishwasher and refrigerator which are new from 2023, a vented hood, white quartz counters with a marbled design, subway tiled backsplash and porcelain plank tiles on the floor. The kitchen has plenty of room for a table and chairs with views through the windows to the private walled patio and garden. The baths were also renovated with new fixtures and vanities as well as porcelain plank tiled floors. New copper plumbing and new electrical wiring were installed in 2021 as well as a hard-wired security system. The windows are all replacements. Recessed lights are in the living room, kitchen and the finished recreation room in the basement. The basement also has an unfinished room for the laundry (including a laundry chute), HVAC, a workbench and lots of storage. The private back yard is completely fenced and has a brick patio, a grassy area, raised planters and a beautiful tree. The HVAC system also dates from 2021 and the roof was replaced in 2019. An assigned parking space is in the parking lot accessed from the east on 52nd St and there is street parking as well. When you are in the house with views of trees through all of the windows, it is hard to believe that you are so close to all of the vibrant shops and restaurants that line 53rd St. It's an easy walk or roll to the University of Chicago, the Museum of Science and Industry and the lakefront. Everyone is eagerly awaiting the opening of the Barack Obama Center which promises not only wonderful programming, but also parks with activities surrounding it. Buses run up and down Hyde Park Boulevard just a block and a half to the north and the express bus to the Loop and the Metra are a few blocks to the east. It's a terrific home in a terrific location.
