Rare opportunity to live in an exceptional 5 bedroom, 5.1 bath single family residence on one of the Gold Coast's most coveted tree lined streets. This meticulously maintained 1920s home seamlessly blends timeless architectural character with refined modern updates, featuring exquisite millwork, soaring ceilings, and elegant living spaces throughout. A dramatic two story living room with cathedral windows fills the home with natural light, while the DeGiulio designed chef's kitchen and gracious dining room are ideal for both everyday living and sophisticated entertaining. The sun filled primary suite enjoys southern exposure and picturesque treetop views over Elm Street. Additional highlights include three fireplaces, two family rooms, a library, exercise room, elevator, separate au pair apartment, and an attached two car garage. The spectacular 800+ sq. ft. rooftop terrace with a built-in fireplace offers a private outdoor retreat rarely found in city living. Just steps from Oak Street Beach, the lakefront, Michigan Avenue, and the Gold Coast's premier dining and shopping.
