This Greystone Landmark home at 3234 W Washington Blvd offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chicago's architectural heritage, showcasing the brilliance of George W. Maher, one of the Midwest's most influential architects. Built in 1901, this residence seamlessly blends the elegance of the Prairie School style with timeless craftsmanship. The Marble Mosaic Dining Room & Red Onyx Breakfast Nook As you move through the home, the dining room will take your breath away. Anchored by an intricate marble mosaic floor, this space is more than just a room-it's a canvas of elegance where the artistry of tilework comes to life. Adjacent to the dining room is a breakfast nook that elevates the experience even further with a magical red onyx step-up leading to a cozy space framed by large windows, which could overlook a lush backyard. This carefully crafted tile work weaves together a narrative of timeless design, where every stone and every tile tells a story of sophistication. Graceful Rounded Arches One of the most striking features of the home is its gorgeous rounded arches, which lend a graceful continuity throughout the living room, dining room, and breakfast nook. These architectural elements create a seamless flow that imparts both elegance and cohesion, subtly guiding you from one distinct space to the next. Framing the dining room's buffet and mirror, these arches draw attention to the home's artful details while enhancing the sense of openness and grandeur, adding a touch of old-world charm that feels timeless.
