Spectacular renovated vintage top-floor apartment in an architecturally significant, owner-occupied building situated on a quiet, tree-lined street adjacent to the Hutchinson Historic District in Buena Park.
Just steps from Lake Michigan, Montrose Harbor, public transportation, shopping, and restaurants near Buena (4200 N) and Clarendon (800 W)
. This large and exceptional apartment offers 10 spacious rooms, including 3 bedrooms plus a den, and 2 full bathrooms.
The building and apartment are impeccably maintained and showcase remarkable original craftsmanship, including oak and maple hardwood floors, mahogany doors, paneling and trim, built-in bookcases, and oak hutches with leaded glass.
With more than 2,200 square feet of living space, this sunny top-floor apartment benefits from the building's extra-wide lot, creating a unique and highly desirable floor plan rarely found in Chicago. The gracious layout begins with an elegant foyer framed by four fluted oak columns.
The expansive 32-foot-wide living room easily accommodates multiple seating and entertaining areas and features a working gas fireplace, built-in bookcases, and French doors opening to a heated sun parlor.
The separate formal dining room showcases original wood paneling, a beamed ceiling, built-in oak hutches with leaded glass doors, and a distinctive vaulted doorway leading to a private bedroom wing. This private area includes the primary bedroom, a full bathroom, and the second bedroom. The third large bedroom, accessed from the dining room, has direct access to the second full bathroom, making it ideal as a guest room, home office, or private suite.
The newly renovated kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and storage. An original butler's pantry connects the dining room and kitchen, providing additional storage and a utility closet. A separate den with a closet makes an ideal home office or flex space. Adjacent to the kitchen, a bright sunroom with southern exposure and new windows provides the perfect spot for dining, relaxing, or enjoying morning coffee.
Outside, a huge private rear deck features both covered and open seating areas, built-in trellises, flower boxes, and low-voltage landscape lighting. The deck overlooks a beautifully landscaped garden and offers lovely city views.
The kitchen will have all new, mission-style, maple cabinets. The entire unit (pretty much) will be newly painted and new blinds.
Private garage parking is available on-site for an additional fee. The building is owner-occupied, non-smoking, and potentially, one cat maximum allowed.
