Property description
Stunning from every angle and in the perfect walk-to-everything location! 726 William is that coveted blend of architecturally historical elements mixed with the finest modernizations. Take in the herringbone pattern of the parquet floor of the office, the signature banding wood trim in the living room, solid wood custom doors with lever handles, frameless cabinetry, custom woven wood screens in the bathrooms, basketball worthy high ceiling in the basement, custom concrete tile imported from Cuba in the powder room and basement foyer, designer light fixtures, custom Pella windows with interior shades, walk-in closets in the primary bedroom and so much more. Every detail has been thoughtfully and intentionally curated. The first-floor flow is circular, leading you from the foyer to the office to the living room with built-in shelving, a wood burning fireplace and conversation areas. Then the Flos chandelier draws you into the dining room with more custom built-ins, great backyard views and easy flow into the custom kitchen. The kitchen was designed by award winning Chicago designer, Rebekah Zaveloff of Kitchen Lab, and features a Miele fridge, Thermador range with 6 gas burners and a griddle, custom made hood, Kallista custom kitchen sink from Mick De Giulio's designer series, pull out freezer drawers and a Thermador dish washer. The island has seating on both sides, making the kitchen the ultimate gathering place. The full wall built-in gives you a pantry, tons of storage and desk, all expertly hidden behind elegant sliding doors. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, with a custom-made lighting fixture from an LA designer, surrounded by windows, backyard views and sliding door access to the multi-level deck. Heading upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms on the 2nd floor. The bedrooms are generously sized, have wonderful closets and hardwood floors. The larger hall bath has double sinks, heated floors and high-end finishes. The spacious primary suite has several closets, a private balcony overlooking the back yard, custom Pella windows with interior blackout shades. The primary bathroom is a work of art featuring a free-standing Victoria and Albert bathtub, double sinks, heated floor and double shower. The 4th bedroom and ensuite 4th full bathroom - complete with a generous closet and queen-sized murphy bed - are located in the dry basement with several egress windows and walkout access to the backyard. The basement floors are heated - big bonus! The laundry room doubles as a kitchenette, ready for Friday night popcorn and snacks. The hall of built-in shelving and closets provides outstanding storage. The high ceilings and size of the rec room, make it versatile for working out, playing pool, gaming and more. Now to move outside. The fully fenced in back yard offers several areas to enjoy: hang out in the cozy fire pit area, relax in the hammock shaded by evergreens, entertain or lounge on the multi-level deck with low lighting, play bags in the ample green space, go head-to-head on the sport court designed by Sport Court Midwest, which was newly resurfaced in 2021. The 2-car garage has alley access. Owning 726 William is owning a piece of architectural history. The 700 block of William is historically significant and has received formal architectural recognition for being the first planned development of Prairie-style homes. 726 William is a special treasure that you will want to call home!
