Nestled in the heart of Oak Park's prestigious Frank Lloyd Wright Historic District, this extraordinary residence offers a rare blend of architectural elegance, modern luxury, and an estate-sized lot that is truly one of a kind.

No detail has been overlooked in this exceptional reimagined home, featuring custom cabinetry, coffered ceilings, Brussel block driveway, a 50-year architectural shingle roof, updated windows, and a state-of-the-art Control4 audio system. The third-floor theatre room provides the ultimate cinematic experience, while a music room/office above the garage offers a peaceful retreat. Step outside to your private resort-like backyard, where a custom pool, spa, fire pit, and expansive deck create the perfect setting for relaxation and entertaining. Designed by Hulen Landscaping, the grounds are a masterpiece, complete with professional landscaping, exterior lighting, and a full irrigation system. This is more than just a home, it's a statement of timeless elegance and modern sophistication in one of Oak Park's most sought-after locations. A short walk to both the Metra and the Green Line, across the street from the park, and steps from restaurants and the Lake Theater. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of history with all the luxuries of today.
