Property description
An architectural gem! Beautiful landmark mediterranean home with Palladian windows, cherry paneled foyer, exquisite moldings and dramatic step down living room. The arches are trimmed with beautiful moldings. The dining room features corner cabinets, rope molding, and opens to a first floor family room. The breakfast room which is currently being used as a child's playroom overlooks the terrace and yard. The second floor features four bedrooms and 2 full baths. Amazing lower level family room/office with a gas fireplace is a great retreat. Terrific storage in the unfinished part of the basement. Best of all, this home is located in a wonderful neighborhood. Close to both the Metra and "EL", shops and restaurants on Main St.,/Chicago Ave., beaches, parks, grocery stores, including Trader Joes, and easy access to lake shore drive.
