This North Park stunner is situated on an oversized lot featuring a side drive and a great sized enclosed back yard. A custom patio and landscaping help the back yard feel like an oasis. Set back and to the north side of the lot, the side entrance to the home creates a unique and open feel. Stepping into the grand entryway, this home lays out in light before you. To the right is the large formal living room and east facing sunroom. They feature wood burning fireplace with original 20's mirror above the mantle, custom oak radiant heat casings and built in storage. The continuous hardwood and original wood trim leads you left to the dining room or up the original staircase with decorative newel posts and 2nd floor landing. The first floor features a guest/inlaw or office with full bath. A huge galley kitchen with wood cabinetry and plenty of work stations is a chefs delight. Plenty of Western sun pours in and overlooks the back yard. A very useful mudroom completes the functional layout offering extra storage, pantry and helps avoid tracking the outside in. The second floor has an expansive primary bedroom with balcony access and ensuite feature. A fully remodeled bathroom and 2 large additional bedrooms with adjoining play/office space wrap this home together creating a warm and functional layout ideal for anyone looking for space, charm and functionality. The basement is wide open with high ceilings, great light and a cement floor. Laundry room, music room, wine cellar and a large play/workout/second living room are all at your disposal with additional storage and work bench in the mechanical room. The many original aspects of the home like wood trim, floors and doors, sunroom, boiler heat and even the cedar closet perfectly blend with the updated features of the home like spacepak AC, blown-in attic insulation, new hot water heater, updated electrical and plumbing and a new bathroom. This is truly a one of a kind home. Wonderfully located just off the river by two very large parks and two universities with beatific campuses, the home is a naturalists dream with birds in the day and quiet nights. Yet close to the brown line and all Albany Park and Foster Ave have to offer like public library, cafes, restaurants and just west over the river from Swedish Hospital and Ravenswood Garden/Lincoln Square.
