Welcome to this thoughtfully preserved 110 year old, original Chicago brick home, just 3 blocks from the Lake Michigan shoreline.
Lots of charm and character in this storied home with a serene backyard oasis in the heart of the city! While this historical gem is the perfect private getaway for you & loved ones, its location makes it easy for you to get around.

Every corner of this property has been lovingly cared for to breathe new life into this storied Chicago home while still preserving its history and charm.
This craftsman style home features plaster walls, an original nickel mirror on closet door, and a mix of original and period replicated hardware throughout.
From the quiet, tree-line street you'll meet a grand, 2 story red brick home with a welcoming wreath on its glass and oak door.
Take a journey back in time as you step onto vintage tile floors and head up the ornate wooden stairs under the art deco light fixtures to your second floor abode.
Inside, the large foyer opens to the living room which has ample seating. Relax by watching a movie (Apple TV & Netflix provided) or, in the adjoining sun room, enjoy a beverage and peaceful views of the neighborhood.
Down the hall, the master bedroom is on the left with two additional bedrooms on the right. Each bedroom has plenty of closet space and a ceiling fan for those that enjoy a little breeze.
The hall opens to a grand dining room with expandable table that seats up to 10 so this room can comfortably accommodate just two for a romantic dinner or host a large group for a bustling family meal.
Chicago is known for world class restaurants, but sometimes we all need a nice home-cooked meal, right? That's why our kitchen is fully stocked with all the spices & essentials you'll need to prepare a delicious meal of your own, if you choose to.
The kitchen also features a pass-through to the dining room with generous bar seating so everyone can interact while meals are prepared.
The dining room also opens to a fun sun room with a wall of windows overlooking the trees in the lovely backyard. I recommend sipping a cup of tea and spinning a record while you watch the birds. The comfy couch opens to a full-size pull-out sofa bed.
The house is spacious with lots of little areas for family or friends to spend time together or do their own thing. While the home is equipped to host 8 people, we think the perfect group size is 5-6. We're happy to host all 8, but keep in mind it will be a little cozier.
*Please inquire if you have a larger group as we have options to expand for up to 16 guests!
