About this home
Bask in the unique charm of this historic live-work gem, seamlessly blending residential comfort with professional possibilities. This extraordinary 2,064 square foot property represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chicago's artistic heritage, having served as the inaugural Chicago Ave Art Gallery in 1995. The versatile two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout spans two thoughtfully designed levels, offering the perfect canvas for your vision.
The upstairs living quarters showcase a meticulously remodeled kitchen adorned with 42" traditional cherry cabinets, gleaming granite countertops, and an elegant travertine backsplash. Premium KitchenAid and LG stainless steel appliances complement the space, while a handcrafted Amish kitchen table adds warmth and character. The stunning storefront level features soaring ceilings with restored white tin detailing, perfect for a gallery, studio, or sophisticated home office. Modern comforts include efficient central air conditioning and heating, enhanced by classic steam radiators. A hidden treasure awaits in the private city garden, complete with a generous 12' x 15' raised wood deck - an urban oasis perfect for entertaining. The property also boasts a specialized darkroom that could easily transform into additional storage or a craft space. Situated in a vibrant neighborhood across from Eckhart Park and Field House, with the Blue Line just blocks away and the convenience of door-front bus service, this property offers an unparalleled opportunity for those seeking a unique urban lifestyle without HOA restrictions.
