1615 N Paulina St

Extra-wide, exceptionally bright 5 bed, 4.1 bath home maintained meticulously with high-end and high-efficiency building and design upgrades. All new Pella wood-framed dual-pane glass windows and exterior doors throughout grant an abundance of natural light. However, built-in blinds and Hunter Douglas shades allow for darkened bedrooms while Pella's SunDefense protection blocks UV rays and the insulating argon maintains the temperature inside the home. The upgraded kitchen includes Miele, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, Sonneman lighting, new island with marble top and waterfall sides, custom cabinets with added overhead lighting, long breakfast bar, separate breakfast nook, walk-in pantry, and wet bar with beverage fridge. A wall of new double pane sliding doors enable indoor-outdoor living from the open-concept kitchen and family room out to the Trex balcony, turf backyard, and professionally landscaped garden. More Sonneman light fixtures, unfinished travertine floors, mixed material wall paper, large corner windows, and a Swedish freestanding fireplace accompany the unique dining and living spaces. Added natural light flows over the newly re-stained/re-painted staircase that opens from the lower level to the top floor and rests next to a multi-floor block window and under a large skylight. The 2nd floor features 3 ensuite bedrooms including a vast primary suite with two walk-in custom built-out closets and an attached Trex balcony. The spacious primary bath features two separate vanities, large walk-in shower, Toto smart toilet, and Toto air jet bath tub that includes a self-cleaning system. All full bathrooms throughout have been upgraded with Duravit vanities and mirrors, Toto toilets and tubs, and Sonneman lighting. All 5 bedrooms have new wool carpet and either walk-in or side-by-side wall closets with custom built-ins. The 3rd floor includes a sitting room that could be converted into a bedroom as well as two generous rooftop decks, one with new Trex decking. The lower level walk-out features 14-ft. ceiling height and includes two more bedrooms, family room turned exercise space, full bath, built-in sauna, and walk-out access to both the back patio and front yard. Heated floors, additional Mitsubishi heating systems, laundry room with Miele side-by-side washer/dryer, and walk-in utility rooms with extra storage complete the lower level. The exterior stone has been expertly sealed, roofs on garage and home have been redone in recent months, and front steps were just repainted. Heating/AC 4 Zone system - High SEER A/C by Lennox and Mitsubishi high-efficiency supplementary heating/AC, 100-gallon hot water tank, new high-power sump pump with backup, and Lennox de/humidifier are also included. Not a detail spared in this unparalleled property from the designer architectural elements to the thorough maintenance by only one owner since its construction. It sits on a tree-lined street with an array of high-end architecture and is walking distance to Bucktown's trendiest restaurants, the 606, and more!
