716 W Schubert Avenue, Chicago, IL 60614

Timeless, turnkey, and featuring more than 5,000-square feet of private outdoor space, this custom-built, 10,400-square-foot, 8+ bed/11 bath (7 full, 4 half) home in East Lincoln Park is a one-of-a-kind property. Designed by award-winning Chicago architect Gary Beyerl, this home is situated on a large lot (37.5' x 160') on a quiet, tree-lined street that's walking distance from Lake Michigan and Lincoln Park proper. The exterior commands attention courtesy of classic brick-and-limestone architecture, a sun-kissed front courtyard, and evergreen landscaping. Inside, the main level presents a modern floor plan that's perfect for elevated entertaining and everyday living, beginning with a formal foyer that links to an open-concept living and dining room. First-class finishes are evident from moment one. The living room boasts 10-foot-high coffered ceilings, hardwood floors, contemporary crown molding, and a marble-fronted fireplace. The dining room features lovely wainscoting and custom window shutters. Past a pretty powder room and walk-through butler's pantry, this home's gourmet chef's kitchen stuns with dual islands with dine-up seating, Waterworks fixtures, three sinks, a breakfast nook with work station, and a professional Wolf/Miele/Sub-Zero appliances suite that includes a six-burner stovetop, four ovens, a warming drawer, a built-in coffee maker, and multiple refrigeration beverage drawers. The kitchen sits adjacent to a spacious family room with beautiful built-ins, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a second fireplace, and affords access to a 22' x 30' back deck for alfresco gatherings. The back outdoor footprint is expansive and also features a sports court and a second terrace that lives above the home's heated, four-car garage. Upstairs, the second level offers an epic primary suite which features more gorgeous built-ins, a fireplace, and a large ensuite bath that flaunts detailed tilework, two full vanities, a marble shower, a jetted soaking tub, and a Toto Washlet, plus a 22' x 13' walk-in closet, a library, and two private offices. (The second-floor library and two offices are technically bedrooms and can be used as such based on your preference.) The third level presents four secondary bedrooms, all with custom-designed ensuite baths, and a kid's office with multiple workspaces for homework and projects, while the top floor features a sitting room with wet bar, a half bath, and an outstanding 72' x 30' roof deck with an outdoor wood-burning fireplace, a hot tub, and sweeping skyline views. But there's more. This home also comes complete with a fully finished basement that features a rec room with full bar, a den, two additional bedrooms for extended-stay guests or an au pair, a home gym, and a theater room. Additional callout details and amenities include custom millwork and cabinetry throughout, designer window treatments and light fixtures, an all-floors elevator, 18 refrigerator drawers throughout the home, surplus storage, four washers and four dryers, five total fireplaces, and decorative ironwork for the stair rails. Additional features include a generator, a sprinkler system, two commercial-grade Smith Cyclone water heaters, and multi-zoned HVAC. With grand proportions and polished presentation, not to mention close proximity to downtown's world-class shopping and dining, 716 W. Schubert Ave. is an investment in the good life.
