Welcome to this architecturally significant Greystone Row House in historic North Kenwood. The inviting front porch leads to a mosaic tiled foyer where gorgeous period details highlight the double parlor featuring 11 ft ceilings, stunning original pier mirror and fireplace with beautiful oak mantle. The front staircase showcases the skill of 19th century artisans with exquisite attention to detail in the intricately carved newel posts, finials and oak balusters. The formal dining room is accessed through a pocket door and features stunning wainscoting and a beautiful built-in buffet, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The owners have preserved the character of this gracious home while thoughtfully updating spaces to incorporate modern amenities. Beautiful crown molding and wainscoting flow throughout the home. The 2025 kitchen renovation features new SS appliances, two-tone cabinetry, tumbled granite counters with matte finish and hexagonal tile backsplash while the refinished dark oak floors combine the best of both worlds and provide contemporary design-forward appeal in this welcoming kitchen space. An east facing deck is accessed off the kitchen where you'll enjoy sunrises over morning coffee. Both bathrooms were completely redesigned in 2025 and include all new flooring, fixtures and lighting. The 2nd floor bath offers a deep soaking tub and separate shower with oak vanity, green subway tile and black and white basketweave tile flooring. The generous Master Bedroom features beautiful original windows facing west, a 2nd fireplace and charming vanity with decorative basin. There are 3 additional bedrooms, one used as a den and the 4th featuring two large east facing windows and a Juliet balcony. A convenient 2nd staircase provides additional access for the rear bedrooms. The unfinished basement offers the opportunity for expansion or potential investment income. Enjoy this wonderful neighborhood in a phenomenal location close to the lakefront, University of Chicago, Obama Presidential Center and Court Theater.
