Just 10 miles outside of Chicago, the town of Oak Park, is a treasure trove of beautiful architectural homes. To live here is to be surrounded by a wide variety of history and architectural styles from Frank Lloyd Wright homes to stately Victorians. This home, built in 1892, has been meticulously restored to its original historical state and lovingly renovated for the 21st century family.
Beautiful hardwoods have stood the test of time and add to the home’s timeless appeal.
Large windows and projecting bays add visual variety to almost every room, while pocket doors discreetly grace entryways throughout the expansive footprint. The bay window in the parlor provides broad views of Mills Parks and the Pleasant Home, a national historic landmark and public museum.
Things get more modern in the renovated Mark Menna designed kitchen with high-end appliances and butler’s area with wine fridge. A spacious main floor bedroom next to full bath is perfect for guests and a spa-like master suite includes a dressing/vanity area with heated floors, soaking tub and steam shower.
The second floor includes three additional large bedrooms with plenty of closet space, another full bath with heated floors, laundry and a beautiful built-in bookcase. The third floor is partially finished with a huge rec room and two additional rooms with closets and plumbing has already been roughed-in for a future bath. The home is finished with a spacious front porch overlooking Mills Park and Pleasant Home along with a rear deck and patio.
This home is listed for $1.35 million with @properties and is showcased on Luxury Portfolio.
