From the Agent: "Few neighborhoods in Chicago can deliver the charm and character of Historic Old Town. Situated on a 40-foot-wide lot on Chicago’s Near North Side, this four-bedroom single-family home stuns from the street with its modern facade. Inside, first-class finishes and an open-concept floor plan define the 5,660-square-foot home’s epic living, dining, and entertaining spaces. A custom floating staircase, 14-foot-high ceilings, and a lofted mezzanine are the great room’s focal points. The main room features heated hardwood floors, a woodburning fireplace, and a large dining space that can accommodate an oversized dining table. The home’s custom chef’s kitchen receives an abundance of natural light and connects to a 1,700-square-foot backyard with a bluestone patio. The third level is entirely devoted to this home’s spectacular primary suite, which features walk-in custom closets, a chic ensuite, radiant heated floors, and a private deck with unobstructed skyline views."
