Contemporary yet timeless with first-class design - and three private outdoor spaces - 1633 N. Burling St. is a 6500-square-foot, 5 bed/6 bath (4 full, 2 half) home with presentation, polish and proximity to the best of Chicago. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Lincoln Park, this home's limestone exterior commands attention with sophisticated architecture, oversize windows, and professional landscaping. Inside, it is evident from moment one that no expense was spared on the finishes, including exquisite millwork details that can be found throughout. An elegant entryway reveals high ceilings and dark hardwood floors, and links to a light-filled, formal living room with modern crown moldings and a gas fireplace with a Baroque mantel. The large dining room features ample entertaining space and a statement-making chandelier, and connects to the kitchen via two access points: a gallery-style hallway with a pretty powder room and a custom butler's pantry. The professional chef's kitchen features white cabinetry, marble countertops, an island, peninsula seating, a breakfast nook with a built-in banquette, and a Wolf/Miele/Bosch appliances suite that includes two dishwashers, an eight-burner stove, and a built-in espresso machine.
