Property Description
Welcome to the John W. Bingham home, designed by Tallmadge & Watson in 1915. It is a masterpiece of classic Prairie Design that has been thoughtfully and lovingly updated by the current owner. From its charming exterior, we enter the home, and to our right, encounter a cozy den, perfect for a first floor office. Moving on, we come to the expansive living room, featuring banded oak moldings, a Roman brick, wood-burning fireplace, and a rotunda--the perfect spot for a grand piano, sun-loving plants, or a giant holiday tree! The dining room is grand, with two built-in china cupboards and easily fitting a ten-person table. The plaster walls have been hand painted by the owner with oak leaf stencils, designed in homage to their Oak Park roots. Through oversized French doors, we enter the sunroom, which was insulated and heated by the current owners. It is a favorite spot for coffee and a chat in the morning! The kitchen boasts custom Amish cabinetry, high-end appliances, including a French-double door oven, as well as a Wolf oven/range, and a large center island. The 2nd floor has four nicely-appointed bedrooms, including an extra large primary suite with sitting area. The current owners renovated the primary suite, adding 2 California Closet-designed closet spaces, and expanding the size of the bathroom, which now features a glorious steam shower. A second full bath on this floor has also been completely renovated as well, keeping true to the vintage style of the home. The 3rd floor is very special: there is a spacious 5th bedroom, a lovely sitting area, and a full bath. Perfect for an older child or a long term guest! The basement has also undergone a complete makeover, and now has a very spacious family room, big enough for a ping pong table and couches, a dry bar with beverage refrigerator, as well as a half bath, and the extra storage spaces needed for this large home. Two entrances, on the side and in the back, lead to the 2-car garage (vehicles enter from the alleyway). The entire property is fenced and private, and the landscaping is truly extraordinary. Walkable to the coveted Mann Elementary School and Oak Park River Forest High School, a few blocks from the celebrated summer farmer's market site, and the Ridgeland Commons pool and ice rink, this home's location is perfectly central. It is a short walk to the Green Line, and a slightly longer walk to Metra. Located on a gorgeous block among other stately homes, this treasure won't last long.
