WELCOME TO THE RASCHER MANSION. Situated in the highly sought-after northwest corner of Lincoln Square in Budlong Woods, this home is the epitome of chic urban living-a captivating destination for those in search of a true standout residence. Set on an expansive one hundred twenty feet by one hundred twenty-five feet lot (no alley gives home added ten feet in depth) and offering approximately twelve thousand square feet of luxurious living space, the mansion effortlessly blends grandeur, comfort, and sophisticated design. As you enter, you are greeted by two distinct living areas. One features soaring eighteen-foot ceilings, a European-crafted floor-to-ceiling fireplace mantle, and a custom wet bar-creating a dramatic gathering space. Adjacent, large south-facing windows flood the second living room with natural light and frame sweeping views of the backyard, with effortless access to a deck that leads to an inviting in-ground pool, a multi-use court, and a full side yard. The heart of the home is a chef’s dream: a vast, open kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area, anchored by an oversized island with seating for ten, abundant cabinetry, premium appliances, and a dedicated beverage center. Just off the main floor is a sophisticated home office complete with a cozy sitting area and a full bathroom-designed for both productivity and privacy. Graceful staircases ascend to the second level-and descend to the lower level-creating a sense of connection across all floors. On the upper level, six spacious bedrooms are arranged around four full bathrooms, three of which are en suite.
