Welcome home to 1224 N Astor, where historical charm meets modern luxury. Bordered by thoughtfully landscaped gardens and on the corner of one of Chicago's most coveted streets, this stunning 6000-square-foot, 4 bedroom/4.5 bath Gold Coast residence has been lovingly renovated to meet today's luxury standard while the elegant and timeless finishes compliment its long history. The beautifully imagined rooftop terrace with skyline views, heated pergola, outdoor kitchen, dining area and two way fireplace adds an additional 1500-square-feet of secluded three season living. An abundance of widows, granted by its corner location, and a gracious entryway set the tone as you are invited into the main living space. On this level, the formal living room impresses, but remains comfortable and is centered upon the marble fireplace - one of six found throughout the home. Passing through the arched doorway, a dining room and separate breakfast table overlook the yard and lead to a show stopping and well appointed kitchen that begs to entertain. At the center, the 12 foot island houses a wine refrigerator, ice maker, generous storage and allows for barstool seating. Custom cabinets, workstation sink, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range and secondary oven, Bosch dishwasher and a custom range hood complete this luxurious package. Powder room and grilling patio are adjacent. All bedrooms are on the upper levels and can be accessed by stairs or the 4-stop elevator. The primary suite occupies the entire third level of this home. In addition to the large bedroom with barrel vaulted ceilings and gas fireplace, the primary bathroom features an oversized, spa-quality shower, separate soaking tub and double sinks. An additional vanity can be found within the walk-in-closet. With a dry bar, the primary lounge and separate laundry area complete this self contained, quiet escape. Well-sized bedrooms two, three and four, are perfect for family or guests and located on the second floor. The second bedroom is ensuite and the fourth bedroom is currently used as an office with handsome built-in shelving. The lower level is home to a family room, home gym, secondary laundry and wine storage. 1224 N Astor is a truly turn-key opportunity that is not often found in the neighborhood. Located one block from the lake and within easy walking distance of beaches, farmers markets, shopping and dining. Leased parking options are just steps away in any direction including valet parking with guest passes available.
