Masterpiece of Architectural Excellence in the Heart of Lincoln Park. Step into this extraordinary custom-built classic residence, where impeccable quality and timeless design meet modern luxury. Designed by a visionary architect, this home showcases a striking, unique facade featuring curved brick arches that set it apart in the cityscape. Every inch of its well-proportioned layout has been meticulously crafted, creating a sense of openness, with detailed molding, custom millwork and exquisite finishes throughout, ensuring a seamless blend of elegance, functionality, and comfort. An elevator services all levels, providing effortless access throughout the home. Radiant heated sidewalks and front steps ensure a warm and welcoming entrance year-round. This remarkable property is being offered for the first time since the owner built it, offering a rare opportunity to own a custom-designed, meticulously maintained residence. Upon entering, you're greeted by a dramatic and unique curved staircase in the foyer, enhanced by a skylight that fills the space with natural light, adding a sense of openness and grandeur. At the heart of the expansive main level lies a breathtaking gourmet chef's kitchen featuring a dramatic barrel-vaulted ceiling, exquisite marble countertops with full backsplashes, and a spacious island perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. This kitchen is a true culinary sanctuary, outfitted with top-of-the-line Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances and custom cabinetry. The open flow into the spacious family room ensures seamless living while just beyond, the beautiful two-level outdoor terrace with a gorgeous fireplace creates an inviting yet sophisticated setting for year-round gatherings. The primary suite serves as a serene escape, boasting a spacious dressing room and a spa-inspired bathroom complete with dual vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, heated floors, luxurious marble finishes and a dedicated make-up vanity. The secondary bathrooms are equally well-appointed, featuring marble throughout and radiant heating floors. Additional bedrooms are generously sized, offering comfort and flexibility for family or guests. The lower level's full guest suite provides privacy and comfort, while a warm and inviting media room creates the perfect gathering space. An impressive temperature-controlled wine wall adds a sophisticated touch, while a butler's kitchen with a fridge, dishwasher and sink makes entertaining effortless. A fun, colorful playroom offers endless possibilities. A bonus dedicated art room is ideal for creative projects and storage. The entire lower floor features radiant heating, and the well-designed mudroom provides direct access to the attached 2+ car garage for ultimate convenience. The third level features a spacious office with identical millwork cabinetry to accommodate two desks. This bright and airy space is filled with natural light from the front windows, with sliding doors that open to an open-air atrium, offering a seamless blend of work and relaxation. A workout/meditation room off the back garden is a light-drenched oasis featuring a complete NanaWall. The folding glass wall opens up to a rooftop deck perfect for lounging and a unique opportunity for a city garden complete with 2 flourishing pear trees. Its well-designed Murphy bed can also serve as an extra bedroom. The ensuite bathroom features a truly one-of-a-kind indoor/outdoor shower, allowing a summer shower while also watching the snowfall in the winter. The dedicated laundry room is a standout feature, offering two washers, two dryers, a large counter for folding, a utility sink, hanging racks, custom cabinetry and a window that allows plenty of natural light to fill the space.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
