UPDATED LISTING ! The house was recently pulled temporarily from the market while two new AC and heating systems were installed. This significant upgrade ensures the new owners are secure in their investment and is covered by a 10 year transferrable warranty from a large Chicago company. The owner is very motivated. If you love sunlight, unique design and a great neighborhood (and are ok with small bedrooms), this house is for you. This must-see spacious home is on a quiet tree-lined one-way street in Lakeview. The modern design blended with stunning antique architectural features create a space that is uniquely open and still cozy and comfortable. The central feature of this custom home is a two and a half story sky-lit atrium that drenches the entire house with sunlight. The stone floor and soaring wall of glass windows completes the enclosed courtyard feel. Because of the sky-light, the third floor bedrooms are small. Very Mies. Twelve-foot antique library doors, stained glass windows and the biggest antique oak bannisters imaginable are some of the antique features built into this twenty year old home. The aluminum front stairs, stone hearth and many of the metal features in the house were designed by local sculptor Miklos P. Simon The oak floored living room has 18-foot fireplace and a custom designed steel and stone hearth. The curved wall in the living room, hides a wine closet, coat closet and audio closet. The powder room has an exquisite steel turquoise door. The combination kitchen family room overlooks the courtyard like atrium through windows that were salvaged from a 100-year old house in Wilmette. The kitchen has generous counter space, walk-in pantry, eat-in booth and a back deck with a natural gas grill, so no need to replace bulky canisters. Three bedrooms are upstairs, two overlook the atrium. The Jack-and-Jill bedrooms have private sinks and walk-in closets. The brightly lit and oversized bonus rec room on the ground floor can be a fourth bedroom or separated to an AirBnB or studio apartment. The side entry leads directly to the mud room, full bath and laundry area. The original house floor plans are included and show how house was designed for a roof top deck in the front of the building and has additional plumbing in the basement for a washer/dryer. The atrium also has a plumbing connection for a wet bar or for a water feature. The basement is huge, bright and dry. There is workshop in the back, just like dad used to have. The workbench and vice in the back area are included. There is plenty of space for an additional bedroom in the basement. A forty-foot elm tree shades the property. Tree swing, fire pit and basketball hoop included.The property has a parking pad with space for three cars but does not have a garage. In December 2020 this area of Lakeview was designated in the ADU pilot program. This means the new owners can build a garage with an 'in-law' apartment above according to the new zoning. The owner is motivated to sell and is very flexible with short notice showings. If you've been just looking at houses, this might be the one. Priced for a quick sale and move in ready.The HVAC systems have been replaced
