About this home
Positioned on one of the most desirable blocks in Chicago's Gold Coast, just steps from the lakefront, 41 E. Elm St. is a Gothic Revival residence originally designed by Daniel Burnham in 1886. Spanning approximately 4,000 square feet, the home blends historic architecture with a refined transitional interior. Its red brick exterior stands out immediately, with oversized windows that give the home a strong, unmistakable presence on the street. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully renovated, introducing elevated finishes throughout. A foyer with black and white tile and a double coat closet leads into an expansive living and dining space with high ceilings, wide plank hardwood floors, modern crown molding, and a limestone fireplace. A powder room connects to the eat-in kitchen, where quartz countertops, custom white cabinetry, a herringbone backsplash, and Sub-Zero, Bertazzoni, and Miele appliances come together. An island with seating and a wall of built-ins add both function and storage, while direct access to the rear deck allows for easy outdoor dining. A restored spindle staircase leads to the upper levels, where all four bedrooms are positioned above grade, each with its own ensuite bath-an uncommon and highly desirable configuration for single-family homes in this area. The primary suite sits at the front of the home with treetop views, a fireplace, a custom walk-in closet, and a bath with dual vanities and a glass-enclosed shower. The third level includes two additional ensuite bedrooms with walk-in closets and opens to a newly constructed semi-covered roof deck with Trex decking. The rooftop is equipped with a built-in irrigation system, supporting landscaped plantings with ease. The lower level has also been reworked and features a media and family room with a fireplace and wet bar, a temperature-controlled wine room, a private office, a second laundry area, and an additional exterior entry. The home includes two washer and dryer setups. Additional features include custom millwork and closets, new blinds, three fireplaces, abundant storage, professional landscaping, and fresh paint throughout. Parking is available nearby for purchase or lease. Located just steps from the lakefront and Oak Street Beach and moments from the shopping and dining along Oak Street and Michigan Avenue, this is a rare opportunity to own a home with both architectural presence and everyday livability in the heart of the Gold Coast....
