Outstanding total reconstruction of this classic Chicago residence in collaboration with Vinci Hamp Architects. Using only the original exterior, this home was completely reimagined into a modern masterpiece. Upon entry, the caliber of design and workmanship is evident. It is what seems like an effortlessly floating staircase that is an engineering feat that makes you realize you are in a very special home, or, just take the elevator. The entrance level is comprised of Terrazzo flooring and a logically placed office which has views of the beautifully landscaped front yard. A large recreational space or exercise room and access via the mudroom to the attached garage. Outstanding light flows through all levels from the domed skylight and spreads throughout the levels. The second floor of the home offers open living spaces that are defined by beautiful built-ins, 6" solid white Oak flooring throughout and large windows. Radiant heating through every floor maintains a coziness that is evident. The Bulthaup kitchen creates a strong central space in the home with every imaginable chef's quality all Miele appliances and Subzero wine and refrigeration drawers. The kitchen opens with NanaWall custom door directly onto the nature inspired landscaped deck and garage rooftop deck. Throughout the home, Rimadesio pocket doors enclose and make for intimate spaces, and all doorways are an unusually lofty 10-12' tall. The owner's suite offers unparalleled space and light with wonderful custom Porro closet spaces, and Hansgrohe, Dornbracht and Duravit fixtures throughout. There is a bedroom/library on this level, as well as an exercise room. The wall in the exercise room is plumbed for a full bath. The top level has two ensuite bedrooms, each with very special custom finishes as well as a terrace with city views. The home is fully programmable including a Lutron lighting and shade system. Three custom wood burning fireplaces, all Marvin windows, plus a sauna are just a sample of what this ultimate home on a fantastic block offers.
