Welcome to this architecturally significant Victorian Greystone-designed in 1888 by influential Prairie School architect George Maher-stands as a rare and timeless offering on one of Hyde Park's most desirable residential streets. Spanning three gracious levels plus a recently redesigned finished lower level, the 5-bedroom, 41/2 bathroom rowhome masterfully balances Chicago historic character with thoughtful modern living. A classic foyer sets the tone upon entry, leading into an elegant living room defined by soaring ceilings, a stately period fireplace with a custom mantel, richly preserved wood detailing, and a dramatic bay window that fills the space with natural light. Just beyond, a separate formal dining room-also anchored by an elegant fireplace-creates an inviting setting for both intimate dinners and large-scale entertaining, reinforcing the home's sense of scale, warmth, and permanence that only a home of this era can offer. The main level is further complemented by a contemporary kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, wood cabinetry, and modern functionality that integrates seamlessly with the home's historic framework, along with a refreshed powder room for everyday convenience. The second level offers four oversized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, one ensuite, providing exceptional flexibility for family living, guest accommodations, or dedicated work-from-home space. The third floor serves as a private retreat, featuring a spacious bedroom with fireplace and custom built-ins, a full bath with an oversized jet tub, and a separate office-ideal for quiet work, creative pursuits, or extended stays. The lower level has been completely redesigned and updated, now featuring heated epoxy flooring, a full bathroom, and two flexible rooms with its own private front exterior entrance. This rare versatile space lends itself effortlessly to a home studio, gym, guest suite, or professional office. The sun-filled backyard currently is a lush garden retreat with a covered patio and open deck. A 2-car parking pad and Tesla charger were recently added, with ample space to accommodate a covered carport or garage if desired. Over $300K+ of extensive improvements by the current owners, including whole house water filtration system, new electrical, new plumbing, updated mechanicals and appliances, hardwood floor refinishing throughout, replacement windows, and more. Ideally located just blocks from the University of Chicago, the lakefront, neighborhood parks, shopping, dining, and convenient transportation, this is a truly exceptional opportunity to own a piece of Hyde Park's architectural legacy-timeless, refined, and rarely available.
