Spectacular historic home restoration on rare 48 x 166 double lot along one of Chicago's most storied Boulevards. This property was originally built in 1885 in the Queen Anne style of architecture and has been carefully restored over a two-year period by a third generation local real estate family. The home is gated and sits on one of the largest lots of historic 'Mansion Row' only steps from St. John Berchman's School in the heart of Logan Square. Fully renovated, expanded and reinforced to accommodate 9 and 10 ft. ceilings on all three floors including the lower level. Upper level features three generously-sized bedrooms including a primary suite with a stunning walk-in closet.

The living room opens into indoor/outdoor entertaining space complete with four-panel sliding doors and a covered deck with built-in speakers, custom ceiling, outdoor grill center with Green Egg smoker and Kitchen-Aid grill. The deck overlooks a fully-fenced backyard encircled by 7 freshly-planted Chanticleer pear trees for summer privacy. Lower level features a guest bedroom, full bathroom, recreation area, mudroom, radiant heat, flood-control systems and ample storage options.
