An extraordinary opportunity in Andersonville. This expansive 4,000+ sq. ft. true artist loft is unlike anything else in the city. Originally the home and studio of renowned sculptor Martin Puryear, the residence offers an impressive sense of scale with soaring 17-foot ceilings, exposed brick, industrial-style ductwork, and abundant skylights that flood the interiors with natural light. The flowing open-concept layout seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating a dynamic space for both everyday living and entertaining. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are thoughtfully positioned between the front and rear of the home, offering flexibility and privacy for residents and guests. A vast workshop area invites endless possibilities, whether envisioned as a studio, gallery, workshop, or completely reimagined to suit personal needs. The generous square footage allows for customization and design potential on a remarkable scale. Set within a historic former tea factory designed by architect Ken Schroeder, the building is enhanced by a beautifully maintained private garden and green space for residents to enjoy. Exterior parking with garage access is included. Conveniently located near the CTA Damen stop, Metra at Lawrence & Ravenswood, and just minutes from the vibrant shops, dining, and cultural experiences of Andersonville and Edgewater. Nearby, Mariano's and Winnemac Park further enhance the neighborhood's appeal. This distinctive residence blends historic character with extraordinary space and flexibility. An ideal canvas for the next visionary owner.
