Prepare to be amazed. Stunning Greystone on quiet and leafy Pierce --one of the best streets in historic Wicker Park. Lovely vintage facade and exquisitely designed interior on wide lot (35 ft by 162 ft) Home is flooded with light from the huge windows throughout this level with exposures on three sides. Neighbor's open side lot provides the home with west sun, foliage, and open space. Floorplan is modern, open, and wonderfully unique. Not your cookie-cutter layout. Soaring 11' foot ceilings. Impressive open staircase with two-story atrium. Large and dramatic living room and dining room with built-ins, fireplace, and stained glass windows. Perfect for entertaining. Updated kitchen with marble countertops, abundant storage, and stainless-steel appliances with an adjacent cozy family room. Second floor has a grand primary suite facing the historic streetscape with lovely terrace. Two additional bedrooms and a bath are on this floor. The lower level is configured as a recreation room, exercise space, laundry area, bath, and a 4th bedroom. The property has magnificent grounds. Large, landscaped front yard and a grand front porch. The home has a charming deck off the kitchen with a trellis covered in greens and vines. The back is a peaceful oasis --open and large-- with grass, trees, and mature perennial garden beds. Three-car garage. Owners have lived there for 30 years and have updated and cared for the structure beautifully. The home has been lovingly maintained and appropriately updated. Recent projects; roof: 2019, total building tuck-pointing: 2020-2023, new gutters and downspouts: 2021, hardwood floors refinished: 2019, new foundation: 2020, new HVAC: 2022, kitchen recently refreshed: 2023. Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity here. The property is remarkable as is but could potentially be expanded both into the backyard and up. Initial conversations with a zoning attorney suggest that an additional dwelling could be incorporated into the home. Also, the garage could house an ADU. Of course, all with proper zoning approval. Bring your clients looking for something unique and wonderful in the heart of the flourishing Wicker Park neighborhood. Steps to diverse restaurants, nightlife, trendy shops, parks, the CTA, the expressway, and all the thriving, vibrant area offers.
