Description
Rarely does a home come along that causes you to stop in your tracks and hold your breath. 337 Melrose does just that. Built in 1889 for one of the founding members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, this home has been lovingly restored and modernized for today's lifestyle. A gracious foyer with soaring ceilings and a gorgeous paneled fireplace greets its owners and guests and treats them to an open and expansive floor plan that is perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is adorned with a tin ceiling, custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and a generous eat-in area. From the kitchen is easy access and visibility to the family room for comfortable relaxation and family time. The living and dining room is of museum quality with coved ceilings, gorgeous details, and is flooded with natural light. The second-floor master suite has a lovely 5-piece marble bath and walk-in closet with custom cabinetry. Three additional large bedrooms each with their own en-suite bath complete the second floor. The third floor has 2 additional bedrooms, a fantastic full bath, laundry room, and a gym or 7th bedroom. The fun is on the lower level with a large playroom, a bar that would make RL envious, and an incredible media room. Countless additional features include a two-car attached garage, large mudroom, amazing home office with vaulted ceilings, incredible landscaping, and so much more. Just steps away from the award-winning Joseph Sears K-8 school, New Trier High School, beach, parks, and the Metra commuter line. 337 Melrose is beyond compare, even for the most discerning buyer.
