Property Description

Welcome to this architecturally significant Greystone Row House in historic North Kenwood. The inviting front porch leads to a mosaic tiled foyer where gorgeous period details highlight the double parlor featuring 11 ft ceilings, stunning original pier mirror and fireplace with beautiful oak mantle. The front staircase showcases the skill of 19th century artisans with exquisite attention to detail in the intricately carved newel posts, finials and oak balusters. The formal dining room is accessed through a pocket door and features stunning wainscoting and a beautiful built-in buffet, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The owners have preserved the character of this gracious home while thoughtfully updating spaces to incorporate modern amenities. Beautiful crown molding and wainscoting flow throughout the home. The 2025 kitchen renovation features new SS appliances, two-tone cabinetry, tumbled granite counters with matte finish and hexagonal tile backsplash while the refinished dark oak floors combine the best of both worlds and provide contemporary design-forward appeal in this welcoming kitchen space. An east facing deck is accessed off the kitchen where you'll enjoy sunrises over morning coffee. Both bathrooms were completely redesigned in 2025 and include all new flooring, fixtures and lighting. The 2nd floor bath offers a deep soaking tub and separate shower with oak vanity, green subway tile and black and white basketweave tile flooring. The generous Master Bedroom features beautiful original windows facing west, a 2nd fireplace and charming vanity with decorative basin. There are 3 additional bedrooms, one used as a den and the 4th featuring two large east facing windows and a Juliet balcony. A convenient 2nd staircase provides additional access for the rear bedrooms. The owners have made significant upgrades and investments including tear-off roof, new furnace, water heater, updated electric and plumbing as well as numerous replacement windows ensuring comfort and peace of mind. The unfinished basement offers the opportunity for expansion or potential investment income. Enjoy this wonderful neighborhood in a phenomenal location close to the lakefront, University of Chicago, Obama Presidential Center and Court Theater.

MY BLOGS

Vacant Land Scams are REAL

My Recent Experience with an Unauthorised Land Seller About 6 months ago, I received an email from (let's call him) Charlie. A "nothing out of the ordinary" email from a common (and mildly validating) charlie.....@hotmail stating: "I have owned the lot for many years, but a couple of years ago I moved from Illinois to California, and I would like to sell the lot. If you could please provide me with a market valuation, that would be great. We are looking to make a quick decision on this. Thank you, Charlie"

THE FRONT PORCH SWING

Oh, the memories. I remember my girls spending countless hours swinging front to back and side to side, hanging out with the neighborhood kids, splashing with the water hose, or crafting top-secret plans with their imaginations. It was awesome. How times have changed. With my two youngest girls slowly nearing college graduation and my older girls working hard in their careers, the days of simple life are taken over by group texts and long-distance daily check-ins. It's just not the same.

less is more, unless, it's for less.

Each day, I'd get my MLS home showing sheets ready, the electronic key card that opens lock-boxes, get dressed with minutes turning into seconds frantically starring at the time ticking away. All ready but just need to ...find ....one matching sock.
