Step into the extraordinary with this iconic Philip B. Maher English Tudor, a stunning example of early 20th-century architecture nestled in the prestigious Jackson Park Highlands. This property is priced as a renovation. It offers an excellent opportunity to personalize with desired improvements. Sitting on more than four city lots, this one-of-a-kind residence offers 7,849 sq. ft. of living space-a canvas ready to be transformed into your dream home. The attention to detail in this home is unparalleled, beginning with the welcoming two-story foyer and a grand staircase that set the tone for what lies ahead. The stately living room with a wood-burning fireplace flows effortlessly into a knotty pine-paneled library and an adjacent enclosed sun porch-ideal for quiet retreats or entertaining guests.

The second floor is anchored by a lavish Primary suite featuring a spacious sitting area, a grand bedroom, and a walk-in closet with ample storage space.

Two additional en-suite bedrooms are located on this floor, two more en-suite bedrooms on the third floor, and a charming guest suite that can serve as an in-law or au pair arrangement. Every room reflects the craftsmanship and architectural integrity that Philip Maher is renowned for, with original doors, windows, and even an intact safe, giving the home a character that few properties can't match.
