2729 Hampden Court

An East Lincoln Park Brownstone situated on a quiet street, just steps away from the lake and the park! The architecture of this home is amazing. The main level offers a large living area with an artful mosaic entrance, an original fireplace, and beautiful built-ins. The large eat-in kitchen, with its alder, grain-matched cabinetry and all-new, high-end appliance package, is warm and welcoming for cooks and guests. The beautiful two-story dining room can accommodate large groups, while remaining intimate for friends and family. The second level offers a large bedroom with a fireplace, currently used as a family room, plus an additional bedroom. The full bath features original oversized "penny round" Italian tile. The spacious laundry room provides broad counter space and abundant storage with new washer and dryer. The top level features the large primary bedroom with a wall of closets. The huge primary bathroom has a custom deep bathtub and shower, also with original custom Italian tile. There is a 4th bedroom on the top level which leads into the fully functional greenhouse which makes an ideal solarium with morning sun and evening cityscape - perfect for private rooftop dining, your herb garden, your daily yoga or meditation practice, and your in-home gym. The private, fully finished English basement offers flexibility as a guest suite or a home office plus play space. This immaculate space has a mini kitchen, full bath, living room, and bedroom, plus storage space easily used as a 5th bedroom. There is a beautifully landscaped pocket garden at the front of the house, and the back features a deck and charming brick patio accessible through the kitchen's sliding glass doors, bordered by privacy fencing and an extra wide garage. This home is exceptional. It is rare to find a home so close to so many Chicago amenities - the natural splendor of the park and lake with a quick walk to shopping, entertainment, dining, excellent schools (this home is in Alcott!), playgrounds, public athletic facilities - and which delivers them with such ease and convenience.
