Property Description
Unique opportunity for the luxury homeowner who wants to provide an opportunity for an extended family habitat, live in nanny, or even business associates to be close in the huge coach house over the attached 5 car garage. The coach house also could be a huge basketball court with not much effort. This outstanding renovation was customized to perfection by Soucie Horner for this current owner who wanted grandparents to be close to kids for the ultimate family experience. The coach house is connected to the main home via a glass enclosed masterpiece of a vestibule. The seller wants to share they used the coach house for grandma, and she has watched her four grandkids grow from birth to heading off to college, while keeping grandmother vital to the daily activities, using the home as multi-generational space. This will become your homestead for all relatives for all holidays. The current owners have had "celebrations of life", baptisms, graduation, marriage proposals, birthdays, and all holidays, whether it's in the side yard or the wine cellar that holds 20-30. It's one of the best entertaining home in Lincoln Park. Yes, the house has beautiful design, but the absolute specialness of living in this home is who is in it with you, and with the coach house, the choice is yours. From the moment you enter the classic, original gate, the house has a feeling of being a home with an oversized front porch, beautiful original detailing, massive windows and beautiful front door which showcases the grand foyer and ultimate wide staircase the moment you enter. The coach house also has the most outstanding wine cellar perfect complete with a dining table! The house itself is incredibly special. High end finishes throughout on this extra wide lot which also includes an entire side lot with a sport court, a separate private office and amazing grass and terracing which gets all day sun. The modern kitchen and great room all overlook this gorgeous outdoor space and provide the most amazing entertaining space; the home has been the backdrop to multitudes of parties. The second and third floors have an amazing 6 bedrooms with a huge top floor playroom/hang out space with a huge skylight. The primary bedroom is ultra luxe and has a full slab Violeta marble bathroom straight out of a magazine. This house can be the ultimate city home for the person who wants it all!
