Description
A large duplex apartment in the Fairfield Condominium in Hyde Park is located on the corner of two quiet one-way streets just a 10-minute walk north of the University of Chicago quadrangles and half a block away from Florence Stout Park (home to Hyde Park's only sledding hill). Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully renovated by its owners of nearly 30 years, this home is move-in ready. Constructed in 1898 when the University of Chicago was just six years old, the Fairfield building was envisioned as luxury living. Materials are old-growth wood, brick, and carved limestone decorated with cornices, intricate stone details, columned porches, and fine finishes. The front doors are solid mahogany. Door frames with columns and egg-and-dart carving (no longer available for purchase) are made of sought-after birchwood. East-facing bay windows are trimmed in wooden columns. The building is part of Hyde Park's history. The owners have maintained the original character of the home through numerous renovations. A staircase encircles two levels of bay windows leading to an exceptionally high-ceilinged lower level. The great room, comprising kitchen and dining room, has 10-foot ceilings, providing plenty of space for family gatherings and for entertaining. The kitchen features soft-close cabinets, granite counters, a copper vegetable sink, and separate huge stainless sink for dishes, and an adjacent pantry. The main-level floor and subfloor are brand new as of this year. The floor is solid-not engineered-northern hardwood. Custom cut woodwork exactly matches the original millwork. The owners have installed all new high-end Newport Brass faucets, a working gas fireplace, and period-matched lighting. This results in a house that functions smoothly, with modern fixtures and conveniences, yet possesses the elegance of a bygone era. The condominium unit itself is approximately 2,400 square feet with six large bays. Two are circular (one upstairs and one downstairs) and four are three-sided. Oversized windows flood the unit with light. Also, be rest assured that the building itself is financially sound. All utilities (gas, water, sewer, etc.) except personal electricity, are included in HOA. Come enjoy the experience this unit has to offer; a true one-of-a-kind home nestled in the heart of Hyde Park.
