LINCOLN PARK…
Chicago’s prestigious Lincoln Park neighborhood is home to many well known,
high profile Chicagoans who choose not to live in the suburbs, but to entertain
and raise their families in a quiet, peaceful residential setting with close
proximity to all that city living has to offer. You are just a short stroll to the
beaches and bike paths of Lake Michigan, Lincoln Park, the renowned Lincoln
Park Zoo, Botanical Gardens and the Farm in the Zoo, the Peggy Notebaert Nature
Museum, lovely Oz Children’s Park (which is complete with tennis courts, a
children’s playground, running paths and even summer family movie nights); all
just steps away. Lincoln Park is truly a “village within the city” offering
neighborhood dining ranging from child friendly and casual to internationally
known five star restaurants. You are minutes from the financial district, world
class shopping on the famed Magnificent Mile, the Theatre District and the great
cultural institutions of Chicago. Lincoln Park is truly city living at its best.
PROVENANCE…
The family’s lifestyle and taste level are clearly realized in this unparalleled home.
The residence was designed and built by BGD&C Corporation, the top custom
design/build firm in the city. No detail was overlooked and no expense was
spared in creating what is known as the most beautiful home in the city. The
couples purchased the home on three city lots and were able to obtain the two
adjoining lots. They proceeded to create a luxurious below ground, award
winning, full-sized Indoor Pool. Artisans from Italy were flown to Chicago to
create the frescos on the walls of the pool and the intricate tile work. The three
obelisks seen in the garden are strategically located over the pool and allow
sunshine to pour into the pool area.
The owners were inspired by the world famous Dumbarton Oaks Gardens in
Washington, D.C. They collaborated with landscape architect, Douglas Hoerr, in
creating truly the most beautiful, tranquil and enchanting gardens you will ever
see.
A Two Bedroom Guest House was designed on the southern most lot to
accommodate visiting family and friends, offering guests complete privacy and
comfort. A lovely lawn and Sports Court were created.
After months of planning, attention to every detail and no expense spared, this
magnificent home was ready for an active family to enjoy life, entertain and
accommodate their many friends and extended families. Every detail on their
wish list has been incorporated into the residence. This offering is a rare
opportunity to move right in and begin enjoying your life at 1955 North Burling
Street.
