This is the Lakeview home buyers have been waiting for: beautifully finished and ready to enjoy. Ideally located near Roscoe Village and Hamlin Park, this all-brick and limestone luxury single-family home combines timeless Chicago craftsmanship with a comprehensive 2025/2026 renovation. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3.1 baths, 3 fireplaces, a finished lower level and extraordinary outdoor living, this residence is truly move-in ready. The main level is designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, with a gracious living room featuring a gas fireplace, a formal dining room, and an inviting family room with a wood-burning fireplace and gas starter. The newly remodeled kitchen is a true centerpiece, showcasing quartzite countertops, Ann Sacks tile, custom cabinetry, an oversized island and breakfast bar. Premium appliances include a Viking 6-burner range and oven, microwave and refrigerator, along with a Bosch dishwasher and Miele warming drawer. A newly built butler's pantry with custom cabinetry and wine refrigeration adds exceptional storage and entertaining space. The dramatic primary suite feels like a private retreat, with cathedral ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace with gas starter, a separate sitting room, two walk-in closets and two Juliet balconies. The completely renovated spa bath features a steam shower with body sprays, soaking tub and dual vanity. All three full bathrooms have been beautifully updated. The finished lower level offers incredible flexibility with an expansive recreation room, fully equipped wet bar, wine refrigerator, storage room, and a private fourth bedroom with an adjoining full bath. It is an ideal setting for guests, a home office, fitness space, media room or additional living area. New carpeting was installed throughout the lower level and stairways in 2026. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a rear terrace off the kitchen, renovated decks, and a brand-new garage rooftop deck with pergola. Professionally designed landscaping, irrigation, landscape lighting, WiFi and speaker-ready infrastructure create a private outdoor retreat designed for dining, entertaining and relaxing throughout Chicago's warmer months. Additional features include Control4 smart-home technology, low-voltage lighting and a two-car garage. Set on a tree-lined residential street in one of Lakeview's most desirable pockets, this exceptional home is moments from Hamlin Park, Roscoe Village, the Southport Corridor, neighborhood restaurants, cafes and boutiques. This is what so many Chicago buyers are searching for: a move in ready Lakeview single-family home with multiple outdoor spaces, luxury finishes and a premier walkable location!
