Haute Residence Chicago: A Historic Gold Coast Row Home for $4.2 Million

New to the Gold Coast real estate market is a historic row home on one of the city’s oldest and most-coveted blocks. Fifty-five West Schiller Street is part of a string of notable Dankmar Adler-designed row homes built in 1875, but the four bedroom, four-and-a-half bath space underwent a gut-rehab just this year. While the interior of the home might be brand new, the renovation was done with careful respect to architectural detail, preservation of character and emphasis on creating a unique wow-factor that’s worthy of the home’s tony location and its historic pedigree.

Among the many highlights of the property: a freestanding, European-style kitchen that features a Prunella marble island, stainless steel Viking appliances and Waterworks custom cabinetry, a main-level family room which opens up onto a professionally landscaped backyard, a library, two en-suite bedrooms, an exercise room, a one-car garage, and a floor-through master suite on the top-level with a walk out terrace off of the bedroom.

The home is the embodiment of “no detail spared.” Just a few examples of the luxe nuances that make the property one-of-a-kind: the herringbone wood floors throughout the home are fabricated from salvaged European Oak, the fireplaces are surrounded with custom Nero Marquina marble, the floor in the custom master-suite closet is lined in silk carpeting, and the expansive master bath boasts custom Walnut paneling, a steam shower, and Nero Marquina marble.
