This architectural gem is truly one of a kind! Chicago architect Irving K Pond only designed this and four other homes with three of them becoming National Historic Landmarks. This historic yet modern home offers the charm and character of an older home (such as the original pocket doors with glass panes) with the upgrades and comforts of a newer home (like the Cambria Quartz counters). And the history of the home also makes it unique with the DeJong and Merrill families each living in the home for 50 years. There is plenty of space for everyone with a large living room, sunroom, and formal dining room with a serving station off the kitchen, and a main level bath. There are four bedrooms on the second level, two with private full baths, and a third full bath is on the hall. The third level has a walk-in storage closet, a half bath, and three finished rooms with windows that can be additional bedrooms or have many other uses. The unfinished basement lends itself to storage and workshop space. Updates include beautiful porcelain tile floors in the foyer, sunroom, kitchen, and main level bath, a kitchen with custom cabinets and stainless-steel appliances, updated light fixtures throughout the home, an updated roof, new HVAC and ductwork, and the water heater. The yard is professionally landscaped, and the courtyard has a relaxing water feature and two patio areas and a walkway created by patio pavers. The neighborhood makes this a wonderful place to call home, and the covered front porch is not only great for relaxing but creates a means to get to know people from the community as they stroll by. And living in the Historic District is special with the charm of 1st St being made of brick, and being by the Art District.
