A true rarity in historic Kenwood, this move-in-ready urban estate was meticulously restored during a multi-year renovation, reemerging as a masterful blend of early 20th-century elegance and modern luxury. Set on an expansive 50 x 300-foot lot within the historic district, the 1904 J.B. Cole residence was once praised by The Economist as "a picturesque structure in old English style of architecture"-a distinction it proudly maintains today. Regal stone lions still guard the original ornamental iron doors, opening to a dramatic foyer with a paneled fireplace and built-in seating. A sweeping circular staircase, illuminated by a period chandelier, sets an immediate tone of grandeur. The reimagined main level unites the home's two original parlors into elegant open-concept living and dining spaces, ideal for entertaining. Pocket doors lead to a chef's kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, quartzite countertops, and generous banquette seating. French doors open to a sunroom and expansive deck overlooking the beautifully landscaped, fully fenced backyard. The second floor is anchored by a luxurious primary suite offering a huge custom walk-in closet, marble spa bath with steam shower, and a sun-filled, heated porch with serene backyard views. Two additional bedrooms, each with decorative fireplaces, share a thoughtfully updated bath. The third level provides two generously sized en-suite bedrooms with custom closets and steam showers. Wide-plank wood floors and custom windows are throughout, while the fully finished lower level lives like a home of its own. Heated with radiant flooring, it includes a spacious family/media room, large laundry room, fifth bedroom with walk-in closet, abundant storage, and a wine cellar tucked beneath the front porch. Completing the property is a Coach House with a four-car garage and a spacious flex space above-ideal for guests, office or gym. Ideally located near the University of Chicago, the Laboratory Schools, and Kenwood's dining, shopping, and cultural amenities, this is more than a home-it's a lifestyle. A rare opportunity to own a meticulously restored piece of Kenwood history, exquisitely reimagined for modern living.
