This north shore Chicago brick home from the 1920's was reimagined through a total gut rehab into a classic space designed for today's family.

Rich hand scraped walnut flooring in intricate patterns sets the tone, along with era appropriate moldings and details. The home features marble fireplaces from 1880's France, exceptional art and antiques, yet still manages to feel welcoming.

In fact, it is the preferred hangout for the owners' daughter's friends, a testament to its inviting design.
