This is the special one you have really been waiting for. Wow. Nothing typical or ordinary about this home, and don't overlook that 150' long lot for exceptional backyard space that you won't find anywhere else! Let's start with curb appeal. An incredibly charming vintage facade & landscaped entry blends in perfectly with the historic nature of the surrounding estates lining this drool-worthy street. And once inside, all expectations will be surpassed. The entry level of this home has been opened up to allow for a light-filled great room that is as dramatic & stunning as it is functional. Skylights from the 2-story vaulted ceilings let the sun pour in, while the wide open area adds to the feeling of spaciousness in the living room. The kitchen is nothing short of stunning with its crisp white cabinetry and professional-grade appliances, subway backsplash tiles and center island with breakfast-bar overhang. Add a large dining table and host the coolest gatherings for all of your friends. There is a powder room on this level tucked away for privacy, then head up a few steps to a serene primary suite overlooking the tranquil back yard. A large walk-in closet is fully organized, while the primary bathroom includes a double-bowl vanity and oversized steam shower. Downstairs you are going to find two awesome-sized bedrooms (that front bedroom is really big), a full hall bathroom, utilities including the washer and dryer and the best family room ever. This may become your favorite part of the home with its oversized glass doors that look out to the landscaped urban oasis of a yard. And I can't say enough about the yard! A paver-stone area just off the family room is larger than most yard spaces for regular homes and the grass area hasn't even begun yet. Relax, entertain friends, host outdoor dinners & sit by the firepit area. If you love landscaping & gardening, you have so much space to work with. If you have kids or pooches that need room to run around, this is the one. You simply aren't going to find a larger back yard in this area. I'm not exaggerating. The entire space is so quiet and private as well, shielded from any noise by the owner-occupied building to the north and building to the west. A large 2 car garage is at the back of the lot and provides ample space for the cars and extra storage. And what can I possibly say about this location? Can you imagine living on the best street in Wicker Park, having the Blue Line 1.5 blocks away, Wicker Park itself only a short stroll, the 606 close by, and then all of those incredible restaurants, cafes, donut shops, & the city's finest boutique stores all right there?!? My clients have kids and don't even own a car because of how convenient & amazing this area is. Where else can you say that in the city? This is a super cool place unlike anything else you are going to find.
