Welcome to 885 S Front Street where you get all the character of a historic house without the constant investment. While the original structure boasts timeless character and exposed brick, the house is full of recent upgrades. A Dave Fox remodel provides a new bathroom, hot water tank, and laundry in the primary suite (2020). Two full upgraded California Closets in the primary suite provide great storage that set this apart from other historic homes. The unique floor plan allows for extra-large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. Each side of the house has its own air system, recently replaced central HVAC (2023) and recently replaced mini splits (2024). Mini splits keep the primary suite cool or warm without temperature adjusting the rest of the house - ideal for a good night's sleep. A chef's gas cooktop sits on a granite island in the kitchen, which includes appliances upgraded in 2024. Samsung Bespoke oven has a built-in air fryer, Samsung Bespoke fridge has a refilling water pitcher, and Bosche dishwasher. Entertainers back yard with a floating deck, built in bar with keg tap, and grill station. A driveway with parking spot and one car garage are a stand out amongst the typical on-street parking of downtown living. A large extension off the garage is perfect for storage, or gym or office if you need a little extra space. Roof was replaced in 2019. Easily walkable to German Village for coffee, dinner, and strolls around Schiller Park, and at the front door of Audubon metro park for kayaking and nature walks. Come home to the perfect intersection of downtown living and nature retreat.
