2647 N PAULINA Street
Chicago, IL 60614

Rare, extra-wide and spacious 4-level home on the coveted family-friendly 2600 block of Paulina in Lincoln Park. This is one of the largest homes in the neighborhood, on a 30-foot-wide lot with 3-car-garage. An entertainer's dream, with living/recreational areas on the first floor, the lower level and the 3rd floor. The main level boasts an enormous living room/dining room combo with a limestone woodburning fireplace and huge windows. The massive kitchen, family room and breakfast area have 11 ft ceilings and tons of room to spread out. The chef's kitchen offers a Viking range, separate wall ovens, a huge KitchenAid refrigerator and a Bosch dishwasher. A walk-in pantry is perfect for housing small appliances. The gigantic island is full of cabinets, a prep sink and a breakfast bar. A breakfast area seats 6-8 people at the table and banquette, with a desk for work or homework. The large family room overlooks the three levels of rear outdoor space: a deck off the family room, a stone patio for grilling, and the expansive new custom-built deck over the entire 3-car garage. A butler's pantry with wine fridge and a tasteful powder room complete the main level. The lower level offers another large space for fun and games, complete with a wet bar and 2 refrigerators. Four bedrooms are on the 2nd floor, along with one of the two laundry areas. The primary suite occupies nearly half the floor, with a spacious bedroom, fireplace, huge walk-in closet and oversized bathroom with two sink areas, whirlpool tub and marble steam shower. Another large bathroom on the 2nd floor has a double sink, a soaking tub and separate shower. A great room with cathedral ceiling and skylights is on the 3rd floor, along with another full bath with shower and a sunny balcony. A roof deck could be built on the east end of this level to take advantage of skyline views. The 5th bedroom and an office/den are on the lower level, along with the second laundry room and extra storage. A sliding door from the office/den accesses the rear patio. So much space, in a great location near schools, parks and easy access to shopping, the highway and downtown.
