Original features such as crown molding, chair rails, and meticulously restored architectural details stand as a testament to the home's rich history.

Perhaps the most notable feature is the lower-level 'speakeasy' lounge, a truly unique space that will take you back in time. With its original wallpaper, knotty pine planked paneling, full bar, three-compartment sink, and cozy family room, this is the perfect spot for relaxing with friends or entertaining guests in style. Just around the corner, the other half of the massive basement offers a spacious workspace, a cedar closet, laundry facilities, and abundant storage, all under its generously elevated 7-foot ceilings. The fully fenced backyard provides a serene outdoor sanctuary, perfect for enjoying sunny afternoons or hosting summer gatherings. A huge 3-season heated enclosed porch extends your living space, complete with plumbing for an outdoor kitchen or hot tub, while the expansive fenced-in backyard oasis offers the ultimate outdoor retreat. This home offers a rare combination of historic character, modern conveniences, and an ideal location in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods.
