Designed by renowned architect John Fugard, this extraordinary 3,800-square-foot residence blends timeless vintage character with sophisticated modern living. With only two residences per floor, the home offers the privacy and feel of a single-family home in one of Chicago’s most desirable historic buildings. Step into a gracious foyer where soaring ceilings, restored moldings, rich hardwood flooring, and beautifully proportioned rooms create an immediate sense of warmth and elegance. The expansive living room features a stately gas fireplace and abundant natural light, offering the perfect backdrop for both relaxed everyday living and sophisticated entertaining. Adjacent to the foyer, the oversized dining room easily transitions from formal dinners to casual family evenings at home. A bespoke office/library with an attached full bath provides exceptional flexibility and can comfortably serve as a fourth bedroom or private guest suite. A separate bedroom wing creates privacy anchored by a spacious second foyer hallway. The luxurious primary suite is designed as a peaceful retreat, featuring two distinctive walk-in closets and a thoughtfully designed ensuite bath with separate shower and soaking tub areas for added comfort and privacy. Two additional substantially sized bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with each offering generous closet space. At the heart of the home is an unforgettable chef’s kitchen and butler’s pantry area, where vintage charm meets everyday functionality. Highlights include a rare 100-year-old Magic Chef range with double ovens, broilers, warming area, and eight burners, complemented by custom cabinetry, a large farm sink, center island, and extensive storage throughout. Adjacent to the kitchen is a bright and inviting family room ideal for casual entertaining, movie nights, or flexible use as media space or fifth bedroom. A spacious laundry and utility area with an additional half bath complete the home. The building itself offers a beautifully landscaped private courtyard complete with lush gardens, seating areas, grilling space, children’s play area, and a coveted dog run – a rare oasis in the city. Garage parking is available within walking distance. Perfectly situated on tree-lined Walton Place, just steps from Magnificent Mile shopping, dining, museums, lakefront trails, beaches, and farmers markets, this remarkable residence combines historic elegance, generous scale, and exceptional city living.
