The Neighborhood

The Lakeview neighborhood is located just north of Lincoln Park, bordered by Irving Park Road and Diversey Parkway, and spanning from Lake Michigan west to Damen Avenue. 3829 N. Greenview is near the highly desirable Southport corridor, a sub-neighborhood within Lakeview.

The Lakeview neighborhood is within walking distance of almost everything trendy and exciting, from boutiques, spectacular nightlife, a wealth of restaurants and coffee houses and Chicago's "Off-Loop" theater district. In 2000, the population of Lakeview made it the second largest community in Chicago.

Lakeview today is notable for its diverse mix of housing and architecture. While high rise condominiums and vintage cooperatives dominate east Lakeview, west Lakeview is known for vintage walk-up apartments, condo conversions and new construction, and single family homes.

The city and surrounding areas are accessible by CTA bus and rail service and Lake Shore Drive.

The Residence

3829 N. Greenview is an intimate, six-unit building constructed in 2002. The handsome brick and stone facade, accented with wrought iron fencing and Juliette balconies, blends well with the other architecture along this quiet, one-way block of Greenview.

Unit 1N is an extra-wide, four-bedroom, three-bath unit with an extraordinary floor plan allowed by the 180 foot depth of the lot. The expansive layout and generous room sizes give the feel of a single family home. Luxurious finishes and fine craftsmanship have been used throughout creating a superb combination of quality and value.

The unit opens to a large formal living/dining room. One immediately notices the genuine oak hardwood floors that extend throughout the entire main level. A wood burning fireplace with gas logs is a delightful focal point for the main seating area. French doors open to a Juliette balcony and allow light to flood into the space. A separate dining area accommodates a large table as well as a side board.

The gourmet kitchen is finished in warm tones with natural cherry cabinets, granite counters, an island with breakfast bar and pendant lighting, a double stainless steel under mount sink and a marble tile backsplash. Upgraded stainless steel appliances include a GE Profile gas range and oven with stainless steel hood vent, an additional oven and separate microwave by Dacor, and a refrigerator and dishwasher by KitchenAid.

The Kitchen is open to a massive great room at the rear of the main level. The great room includes a breakfast area and a separate family room. French doors open from the family room onto an oversized back deck, an ideal flow for entertaining and grilling.

The main level also features a bedroom that easily functions as an office or playroom. A full bath is also located on the main level, finished with a cabinet vanity with granite counter and Kohler under mount sink, a Kohler tub/shower, a Kohler toilet and slate tile for the floor and tub/shower surround.

An open staircase with Prairie Style newels and hardwood treads leads to the lower level of the unit. The entire lower level features a radiant heating system, under the carpeted bedrooms and the slate floor in the hallway.

The large master suite features French doors that open to a walk-out patio with paver brick and a commodious walk-in closet. The spa-like bath is finished with a maple cabinet double vanity with marble counter and double Kohler under mount sinks, a walk-in shower, a Trajet whirlpool tub and a Kohler toilet.

Two additional bedrooms are located on the lower level. They share a full bath with white cabinet vanity, a tub/shower, a Kohler toilet and ceramic tile floor and tub/shower surround. Completing the lower level is a full laundry room with Fisher & Paykel washer and dryer, a sink and storage cabinets. Also included is a private interior storage closet. This space can be used purely for storage, but is also wired to be a possible home office.

Unit 1N comes with one garage parking space, plus a two-car parking pad immediately behind the unit. This parking pad could be converted into a private yard. Additional features of this unit include: custom window treatments throughout; extensive recessed lighting; walk-in closets in all bedrooms and excellent storage; and wiring for sound in the living room, office/playroom, family room and master bedroom.
