Property Description
Stunning brick Spanish Colonial Revival from award winning architect Amadeo Leone in an absolutely ideal, picturesque location with beautiful Legion Park, the Chicago River and the bike/running path right outside your front door. Escape all the city noise and congestion in this serene, architecturally diverse neighborhood with 100+ year old homes and mature trees. Lovingly maintained by the same family for the last 57 years, this home is filled with character and preserved original details; arched doorways and transitions, classic wood-paneled foyer with powder room and coat closet, a swinging butler's door, wall molding/wainscoting, a stately grand fireplace, sconces, refinished hardwood floors, high ceilings, a Juliet balcony, and even a laundry chute. Multiple exposures in nearly every room provide abundant natural light. The main floor has a versatile floorplan with large living room, separate formal dining room adjacent to the kitchen, and a sunny family room addition. There are expansion possibilities in the unfinished, dry basement with a full bathroom already in place. The impressive wooden staircase leads to 3 large bedrooms with extra closets and another full bathroom. Jamieson and Mather school districts, and one block from Northside College Prep, consistently ranked as the #1 high school in Illinois by U.S. News & World Report. This is a huge, over-sized lot with large back yard and a two car garage. They simply don't make homes like this anymore!
