Description

Ideally located just one block from both the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools and the University of Chicago campus, this beautifully updated single-family home with garage offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, abundant natural light, and exceptional living space throughout. A thoughtful and extensive renovation completed in 2022 transformed the home with a stunning new kitchen featuring exquisite custom millwork, quartzite countertops, a large center island, and Thermador appliances. The renovation also included beautifully updated bathrooms and a spacious screened porch with Trex flooring, creating additional living and entertaining space for much of the year. The main level offers an ideal flow for everyday living and entertaining. A gracious living room features a gas fireplace, built-i n bookshelves and custom storage, while an adjacent sun-filled sunroom provides a bright retreat throughout every season. The open floor plan includes a generous dining area and a versatile adjacent room perfect for a home office, den, music room, or study. The kitchen offers counter seating, space for a large breakfast table, plenty of windows and direct access to the large, screened in back porch. A stylish powder room completes the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with an expansive adjoining area ideal for a dressing room, private office, nursery, or sitting room, walk in closet and an en-suite bath. A well-appointed full bath serves the additional bedrooms. The finished lower level is remarkably bright, with large windows providing abundant natural light. This level features a spacious family room, a large 4th bedroom, and a newly renovated full bath. A large laundry room with sink, utility room, generous pantry, and extensive storage complete the lower level. Major mechanical updates include a new boiler, conversion to hot water radiators on 2nd and basement floors and underfloor heating on 1st floor and central air conditioning installation (2013), hot water tank (2024), and washer and dryer (2025). Electrical systems were updated to code during the 2013 renovation. Each floor is zoned separately allowing for maximum comfort and efficiency. Meticulously restored and maintained, this move-in-ready home beautifully blends original architectural character with modern conveniences, thoughtful design, and exceptional craftsmanship in one of Hyde Park's most desirable locations.
