Property Description
This East Lincoln Park crown jewel marries history and architectural significance with luxurious interiors. The home is located on a double 50 x 123.4 lot. This Italianate-style residence at 1964 North Burling was originally built in 1883 as a single-family home on a former nursery and horse truck farm. It is part of the Sheffield National Register Historic District and, significantly, is rated Orange in the Chicago Historical Resources Survey. The current owners meticulously restored this limestone-and-brick home with successive renovations by Bulley & Andrews in the subsequent years to maintain its impeccable condition. The gorgeous decor, designed by Alessandra Branca, was featured in House Beautiful and Veranda magazines and may be sold vacant or fully furnished. Stepping through the front double doors, you'll find French maple chevron floors, working marble fireplaces, and rooms lovelier than the last. The gourmet kitchen features cerused white oak cabinetry, marble countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances, including a Thermador double oven and Sub-Zero refrigerator. A spacious butler's pantry with a stainless-steel wet bar adds an extra layer of convenience. The attached garage, with a side door entrance, offers direct access to the home and extends its length. A terrace above the garage can be reached from the family room and leads to a beautiful side yard and basketball sport court-ideal for both relaxation and recreation. Double staircases connect the upper and lower levels, creating excellent flow throughout the home. The spacious primary suite includes a large dressing room, double walk-in closets, and a luxe bath with marble and silver finishes. Two additional bedrooms and a convenient laundry room complete this level. The third floor is an entertainer's dream, featuring a penthouse lounge with a full working bar and a second terrace for the perfect outdoor retreat. Another bedroom and full bath provide flexible space for guests or a private oasis. The lower level was designed with both comfort and entertainment in mind, offering heated floors, a fifth bedroom or office, a media room, a recreation room with built-in desks and bookcases, a wine cellar, and a steam/infrared sauna shower. Additional details and upgrades are available in a fact sheet upon request. Notably, there is potential for elevator installation on the southeast corner of the home, and square footage could be expanded if desired. The property currently includes a two-car attached garage plus a two-car parking pad. Enjoy tree-lined, quiet walks along some of Lincoln Park's most beautiful blocks, as well as the convenience and energy of shops and restaurants in the prime Armitage and Halsted area. A truly breathtaking home in the perfect location!
