01About this home

Welcome to your Certified Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH)! Experience the perfect blend of comfort and durability, all designed to empower you with energy independence. Constructed with the robust and timeless Chicago Common Brick, this home is nestled in a prime location in Bronzeville. Just steps away, you'll find shopping, dining, Greenline Trains to the Loop and Fulton Market, as well as the stunning Lakefront. This beautifully designed, solar-powered, modern single-family residence was meticulously crafted and built by the award-winning sustainable homebuilder Greenline Homes. The 10-foot-tall main level boasts an open concept, featuring a sun-drenched kitchen with quartz countertops, elegant hardwood floors, and sleek modern finishes. The second level offers three bright bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with its own en-suite bath. The 9-foot-tall lower level provides a cozy family room and a fourth bedroom with a full bath. Thoughtfully designed floor plans ensure a comfortable living experience. Advanced insulation and quad-pane windows result in exceptionally low operating costs and a serene, library-like interior. The state-of-the-art Mitsubishi heating/cooling system delivers exceptional efficiency, providing comfort, energy savings, and minimal maintenance. Unlike many new homes that rely on air leakage for fresh air, the Energy Recovery Ventilation system effectively manages the exchange of filtered fresh air, ensuring excellent indoor air quality. Furthermore, you'll have your own power plant with a rooftop solar power generation system, offering clean, renewable energy and significantly reducing your utility bills. The expansive rear yard includes a spacious 2-car garage. Meticulously designed, engineered, and constructed to provide the most comfortable, quiet, durable, and efficient home imaginable. Just minutes away, you'll discover lakefront recreation, the vibrant Loop, Hyde Park, and Washington Park, a sprawling 380-acre park. A short walk will take you to the Greenline Train station. Schedule a tour of your dream home today.
