Retraite Urbaine Exquise Avec Oasis Privée Sur Le Toit

Tucked inside The Alcove, a private gated enclave in the heart of Wicker Park, this exceptional 3,300+ square foot home offers a rare combination: true city living with the space, privacy and ease of a single-family home. Set back off Division Street between Division, Paulina and Milwaukee, the residence feels remarkably removed from the energy just beyond its gates. Step outside and some of Wicker Park’s best dining, shopping, coffee, fitness and nightlife are moments away. Come home, and the setting is quiet, private and residential. An attached 2-car garage, four levels of living space, private rooftop terrace and the only in-home elevator in the community make this an especially unique offering. The entry level is designed for effortless everyday living, with direct access from the attached garage, a custom mudroom with sink and built-in storage, an additional organized coat closet, and a private guest bedroom with en suite full bath. One level above, the expansive main floor is bright, open and ideal for both daily life and entertaining. The living room features a fireplace and oversized windows, flowing into a generous dining area and spacious kitchen with breakfast bar, designer backsplash and abundant storage. A separate family room creates an additional place to gather, while floor-to-ceiling doors open to an oversized balcony and bring natural light across the entire level. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat, with floor-to-ceiling windows, an exceptionally large bedroom, a walk-in closet plus an additional reach-in closet, both fully customized, and a spacious en suite bath with freestanding soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms each feature custom closet systems and share a full hall bath, with laundry conveniently located on the same level. The top floor provides even more flexibility, with a second family room and dedicated office or lounge space opening directly onto a private rooftop terrace. It is an ideal setting for entertaining, working from home or simply escaping above the neighborhood. The private elevator connects every level, making groceries, luggage, guests and rooftop entertaining exceptionally easy. Thoughtful upgrades throughout include hardwood flooring, custom paint and designer wall coverings, upgraded lighting, custom storage in every closet, a built-in mudroom, designer tile work, automated roller shades, smart-home integration, hardwired internet and a motion-sensor security system. Completed in 2022, the home also offers newer appliances, mechanicals, windows, roof and elevator. The location is difficult to replicate. The Alcove sits quietly within one of Wicker Park’s most walkable pockets, with the Division Blue Line less than a block away for convenient access downtown and to O’Hare, while Milwaukee Avenue, Division Street and the surrounding neighborhood are just outside the gates. For buyers who want Wicker Park without sacrificing privacy, garage parking or the way a single-family home lives, this is a rare opportunity to have both.
