This magnificent residence is located on a verdant tree-lined street in the heart of the Kenwood Historic District. While constructed after the turn of the last century, the house has been elegantly and thoroughly updated for life in the current one. Horatio R. Wilson was a well-respected architect of his time, and his work is known for structural integrity and quality of materials - each of which are apparent decades after he first conceived of the design. Sited on a ridge that once ran across the Kenwood landscape, the impressive house had been meticulously maintained by former owners, and that stewardship continues. Behind the handsome facade of the nearly 8,000 square foot house is a wide array of aesthetic and mechanical improvements recently completed. The latest renovation (following an earlier gut rehab) included extensive masonry work, new windows, floors sanded and refinished, fireplaces relined and chimneys tuckpointed, new lighting, new bathrooms; all combine to make this a home that is a rarity in the neighborhood - truly move in ready. The quality of the residence is apparent the moment one enters the foyer, with an elegant carved stairway that rises the full three levels, capped by a dramatic skylight. The refined layout of the main level offers a formal living and dining rooms, a library (each with a fireplace) and a kitchen that was transformed by John Vinci, a living legend of Chicago architecture. The stunning space offers Bulthaup cabinetry, with vistas that extend to the lush exterior through a glass wall to covered porch framed by commercial grade railings and staircase, accented by recessed lighting in the warmth of a wood slat ceiling. The second and third levels of the house each feature three bedrooms and multiple baths, of which the Primary Bath is truly a room with a view. Large welcoming landings, hardwood floors, walk-in closets, vintage woodwork, crown moldings, leaded glass - the amenities are too numerous to list! And they continue on the lower level, with a mud room complete with dog spa, exercise room, additional full laundry, game room, family room and storage. The coach house was fully renovated and accommodates two cars (with EV charger) below the contemporary one-bedroom apartment. Kenwood is a short 8-minute drive from the Loop, near the University of Chicago, Laboratory Schools and all the Hyde Park community has to offer. A stunning property where you can with the next chapter of its extraordinary history.

An incredible opportunity to invest in the potential of an historic home the Kenwood neighborhood. House requires work - but is gracious, spacious and is priced to move. At the time this home was constructed there were only four houses on the 4800 block of Greenwood Avenue; Kenwood was then a bucolic suburban retreat. The catalysts fostering the growth of the neighborhood (the founding of the University of Chicago and the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition) were years away. For a century and a half this home has stood proudly as the world evolved around it - a new century dawned (twice) and houses by architectural innovators including Frank Lloyd Wright and Burnham & Root rose nearby. A resurgence occurred as the community was landmarked, and a neighbor elected president. And through it all 4849 endured. The ambience of those earlier years remains: a handsome staircase, leaded windows, high ceilings, warming fireplaces and a verdant yard. This welcoming, spacious home offers a layout that can be reconceived for the 21st century, including space for a large kitchen and family room. With six bedrooms, four full and one-half baths, enclosed porches and lovely formal rooms on the main level, this house provides ample space indoors, and out. Hyde Park and Kenwood are vibrant communities - enhanced by the University of Chicago, adjacent to the city's magnificent lakefront and located a mere ten-minute drive from the Loop. This is an amazing opportunity to write the next chapter of this home's enduring legacy. Property is sold AS-IS.

The striking facade, with its broad arched entry accented by carvings of roaring lions and serene figures, only begins to indicate the quality of the interior. Situated on nearly a half-acre of land in the historic Kenwood neighborhood, the mansion offers eight bedrooms and four full and two half-baths over three floors of living space, plus a lower level. The public rooms are elegantly detailed; the murals and bronze wall sconces are but two examples of the attention to detail given by the architect William Carbys Zimmerman and attributed to stellar artisans including Tiffany Studios. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to restore the property to its original magnificent stature, enhanced by amenities desired today.

This lovely 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath Victorian by architect F.R. Schock is located on one of the most desirable blocks in the S. Kenwood Historical district. With its vintage charm dating back to 1890, the home features high ceilings, original woodwork and wainscoting, two original fireplaces and oak floors. While the home is in good condition and could use some updating, it does have modern features, including a Samsung AC ductless mini-split system on all three levels and two newer baths. The Foyer features a grand staircase with oak wainscoting and this opens to a grand living room with its original fireplace, now probably decorative. There is a separate dining room that features oak wainscoting and stained glass. A sizable eat-in kitchen graces the entire width of the house and includes large LG washer and dryer and granite counters. The second floor includes the primary bedroom suite with its bay windows, oversized walk in closet with built ins and a full bath. Three additional large bedrooms on this floor share a new high-end bath with travertine marble. The third floor is quite special with its original ballroom, a luggage/storage room, the 5th bedroom and an attractive newly tiled bath with a walk-in shower. The basement is unfinished. The exterior of the home was painted within the last few years. This home is an estate and because the age of the mechanicals and roof are unknown, they are selling the home, "As Is." Close to a Lake Shore Drive access, the Metra, grocery shopping, restaurants and all that Hyde Park/Kenwood has to offer.
