Set on a double lot in West Town, this tastefully upgraded three-bedroom, 3½ bath, single-family home is listed for $1,449,000.
The home at 1828 W. Race Ave. is an oasis with a gated front wall that opens to a huge front yard. Unlike most Chicago houses, which are long, narrow and vertical, this residence is at the rear of the lot with an L-shaped floor plan and 4,000 square feet of living space on only two levels
The home, listed by Jennifer Ames of Coldwell Banker, includes hardwood floors, substantial moldings and millwork, a home automation system and an attached, heated 2-car garage.
The main level has a large combination living/dining room, an eat-in kitchen with walk-in pantry, a spacious family room with a fireplace and new built-ins, and a powder room. The garage is directly accessible via a mudroom.
The landscaped outdoor space includes a large fenced front yard with a patio and in-ground watering system. A second patio ideal for container gardening is located behind the home.
The three bedrooms and three full baths are together on the upper level. The opulent master suite features a vaulted ceiling, dual custom walk-in closets, a morning kitchen and a stunning en suite bath. The second bedroom is en suite, and the third has the use of a full bath in the hall. A bonus room (ideal as a den, office or nursery), a new laundry room, and a rear deck are also on this level.
The home is well situated on a residential side street near neighborhood dining and entertainment, and conveniently close to Mariano’s and the 90/94 Expressway.
