Property Description

Tucked away on the tranquil, tree-canopied Orleans Street in the distinguished Old Town Triangle, this modern architectural masterpiece, crafted by the acclaimed Larry Booth, is an oasis of luxury with 4 spacious bedrooms and 5.1 bathrooms located in the desirable Lincoln School District. Celebrated in numerous architecture publications as "The House of Light," this remarkable home is admired for its elegant limestone and granite exterior, soaring ceilings, and a capacious central atrium that envelops the interior in a warm, natural glow, accented by contemporary moldings, streamlined railings, and broad windows. Stepping inside, the graceful foyer ushers you into a refined formal living room marked by its lofty ceilings. Nearby, a raised dining room awaits, ideal for entertaining, anchored by staircases that rise to the second story. The gourmet de Guilio kitchen is the centerpiece of the residence, equipped with high-end appliances, intelligent SieMatic storage solutions, and stunning stone countertops, all overlooking the cozy family and breakfast rooms, which feature a limestone wood-burning fireplace. The second level is the sanctuary of two substantial bedrooms, including an opulent primary suite with two full bathrooms-one showcasing a sumptuous soaking tub, the other a sophisticated stone shower-along with two expansive walk-in closets, elegant ceiling details, built-ins, and a secluded den/office with a view framed by floor-to-ceiling windows. An additional bedroom (currently used as an extra family room) with charming built-ins, a broad picture window, and a newly renovated bathroom is located across from the atrium. Also located on the second floor is a convenient and a practical laundry room. Ascend to the top floor to find two more ample bedrooms, each with updated full bathrooms, including one ensuite, all encircling the dramatic three-tiered atrium. The lower level boasts a wine cellar, a versatile multipurpose room, and substantial storage space. Outdoor living is exemplified with a bluestone patio, a sprawling deck atop the brick two-car garage featuring a gas grill and fire pit, and a third-floor rear deck. A separate rooftop terrace offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city skyline. The home's frontage includes an attractive, easy-care garden. Located on a serene and secluded one-way street, this home is mere moments from the neighborhood's lively boutiques, diverse eateries, cozy coffee shops, fitness centers, convenient public transit, grocery stores, museums, North Avenue Beach, lakefront bike trails and the picturesque Lincoln Park with its esteemed Green City Market. With proximity to prestigious institutions such as Latin, Parker, Catherine Cook, and the British School, this extraordinary residence is a rare find, presenting a chance to indulge in refined living in one of Chicago's most endearing enclaves.
