About this home

Nestled on a tree-lined cul-de-sac directly opposite Ray Elementary School playground, this prestigious rowhome was designed in 1903 by New York architectural firm Mann, MacNeille & Lindeberg in the classic Renaissance Revival style for University of Chicago academics and represents a rare opportunity on Hyde Park's storied Professor's Row. Beyond the stunning and well-preserved Gothic arched windows, this picturesque residence has been thoughtfully updated for modern living while preserving its profound historic character; offering six bedrooms, three and a half renovated baths, three wood burning fireplaces and an updated kitchen with Sub-Zero and Bosch appliances. The rear veranda and storybook backyard are a gardener's dream. The finished lower level provides exceptional utility with epoxy flooring, a workshop, laundry center and newer mechanicals. The third floor storage room and attic are a testament to the home's abundant space. Only two blocks from the Laboratory Schools, this architecturally significant, once-in-a-generation offering is within the University of Chicago campus and near everything that Hyde Park has to offer.
