Discover this magazine-worthy sunlit masterpiece in the heart of Old Town Triangle. This impeccably restored 1896 Chicago workers' cottage seamlessly blends historic charm with contemporary elegance, thanks to a meticulous renovation by Space Architects and Planners LLC.

With four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms, this residence is designed for both comfortable living and effortless entertaining. The main level features a dedicated office perfect for remote work and a formal dining room with coffered ceilings and an elegant wet bar. The wet bar includes a beverage station, custom cabinetry, and French bistro-style brass shelving, adding a sophisticated touch. Arched hallways add character and elegance throughout. The expansive and thoughtfully designed kitchen is a chef's dream, showcasing quartzite countertops, and oversized island, and a breakfast nook for casual dining. Equipped with custom cabinetry and top of the line appliances including a 40" Ilve Italian gas range, this culinary space flows seamlessly into a bright and spacious living room.
