Cook, US
Introducing a rare Ravenswood masterpiece: a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath luxury single-family home on one of the neighborhood's most beautiful, tree-canopied blocks. Set on an extra-wide 33x165 ft lot, this residence delivers the perfect blend of timeless architecture, elevated finishes, and sophisticated modern living-all in one of Chicago's most walkable, character-rich communities. This home was nearly gut rehabbed before the current sellers purchased in January of 2024. Step inside and you can feel the quality of the workmanship. Sunlight pours through oversized windows into the spacious living and dining rooms. In this expansive but cozy space, admire the elegant gas fireplace, lovely molding, pretty lighting, and soaring ceilings. The stylish powder room and large entry hall add to the elegance. The heart of the home is the huge chef's kitchen-an entertainer's dream, featuring premium stainless-steel appliances, quartz counters, custom cabinetry, and a generously-sized peninsula. Just outside the kitchen door is a large back deck overlooking the lush, landscaped backyard with its distinctive pergola and wide 2.5-car garage. Upstairs on the second level, you'll find three good-sized bedrooms and two beautifully renovated full baths, along with a convenient upper-floor laundry room to ease everyday living. Occupying the entire 3rd floor, you'll discover a serene primary suite with a spa-inspired bath, walk-in shower, double vanity, and walk-in closets, with a front balcony and lovely rear deck providing privacy and tranquility. Downstairs, the huge, fully finished lower level with another full bath offers incredible versatility as a recreation room, guest suite, office, or fitness space. There is also abundant storage. This home has been meticulously improved inside and out. Inside, you'll find upgraded mechanicals, new custom closets throughout, and wired high-speed internet routers on every floor. Outside, note the refreshed exterior, totally fenced in back yard (great for dogs), and a professionally landscaped native "pollinator garden" in the front yard that attracts many butterflies and bees much to the delight of neighbors. Set in the heart of Ravenswood, you're just moments from beloved parks, restaurants, boutique shops, Mariano's, LA Fitness, the Metra, the Brown Line, and the vibrant energy of Andersonville, Lincoln Square, and Southport Corridor. 4889 N Hermitage is a refined, move-in-ready home in one of Chicago's premier residential enclaves.
