This piece of Chicago history is a charming 1875-built home on Menomonee Street. Featuring a secret garden which is a three-time City of Chicago Garden Contest winner. This iconic beauty with a side yard patio and tandem parking seamlessly blends historic character with modern updates.

Stained glass accents and intricate moldings further enhance the home's historic charm. Upstairs, a large family room with a stone fireplace is complemented by three bedrooms and a guest bath.
