Located in the heart of Chicago's vibrant Southport Corridor, 3823 N. Wayne Ave. is an exquisitely designed single-family home that seamlessly blends timeless architectural elegance with modern luxury. Designed by Patrick Plunkett Architectural Design and situated on one of the area's best blocks - one block from Blaine Elementary School - this full masonry residence offers 5,000+ interior square feet of living space across four levels, including six bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and five private outdoor spaces including the fenced-in front yard. Framed by mature trees and professional landscaping, the striking brick and limestone facade is accented by large, arched windows. Inside, hallmark design details such as custom millwork, hardwood floors, and crown molding elevate the living experience throughout. Upon entry, a sunken foyer welcomes visitors, leading to a thoughtfully designed main level that's ideal for both large-scale entertaining and intimate everyday living. The main level begins with a large, open-concept living/dining space with soaring ceilings, a dramatic stone fireplace, and a pair of glass French doors that open onto Juliet balconies and fill the space with natural light. The adjacent chef's kitchen boasts high-end appliances from Thermador, Sub-Zero, Bosch and Viking including double ovens and a beverage fridge, as well as stone countertops, Shaker cabinetry, an island, counter seating for four, and a built-in desk. The adjoining family room receives incredible natural light as well, features a second fireplace, and effortlessly links to two decks: an immediate back deck (11' x 12') that's great for outdoor grilling and a raised roof deck (20' x 20') that lives above the two-car garage, offering space for an alfresco dining table and lounge. Upstairs, the second level presents two secondary bedrooms that share a full bath and an elegant primary suite with a statement fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like en-suite bath with herringbone marble floors, a jetted tub, steam shower and dual vanities. The top level features a sunlit recreation room, another full bath, and the home's fourth bedroom (currently styled as an office), plus access to two additional rooftop decks (19' x 20' and 19' x 7'). The lower level offers a spacious recreation room with yet another fireplace and a custom bar center complete with a beverage fridge and sink. This level also includes a sizable guest bedroom, a full bath, and an exercise room (or the home's sixth bedroom based on preference). Additional highlights include polished millwork details throughout including beautiful banister details for the stairs, refinished floors, fresh paint throughout, four total fireplaces, upstairs laundry, and durable maintenance-free decking across all of the outdoor spaces. With an unbeatable location on one of Southport Corridor's most desirable blocks - on a lovely one-way, tree-lined street - moments from lively restaurants, ice cream, the Music Box Theatre, and boutiques, 3823 N. Wayne Ave. is luxury living on Chicago's sought-after North Side.
