About This Home
Charming, light-filled 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath single-family home with garage, one block from the Lab School and the main quads of the University of Chicago. Thoughtfully remodeled to preserve its vintage character, the home retains original architectural details and built-ins, with excellent storage on every floor. The open first floor includes a spacious kitchen and breakfast room with custom millwork, a large island with prep sink, a butler's sink, and Thermador appliances. A large screened porch extends the living and dining space and functions like a second family room for much of the year. The fully finished basement adds flexible living space. Kitchen and bathrooms were gut renovated in 2022, when the screened porch and rear mudroom were also added. Professionally landscaped yard. A perfect family home!
