Welcome to this absolutely stunning & unique 2-unit home nestled on a quiet tree-lined street in prime East Garfield Park. Must see to really appreciate this a fully reimagined frame/brick home showcasing meticulous craftsmanship and high-end designer finishes throughout. The upstairs duplex lives like a sophisticated single-family residence with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Yet it has an amazing garden unit that will generate enough income to easily cover the property taxes, maintenance, utilities and insurance on the property. The main unit features a spa-inspired primary bath suite that is nothing short of true luxury. It also offers a bright open-concept layout, anchored by a chef's kitchen with 36 inch range, hidden walk-in pantry, wine fridge, dramatic waterfall island, custom cabinetry, and premium SS appliances, including a second, separate beverage fridge. Custom built-in cabinets in the dining room, as well as custom shelving & electric fireplace in the Family room all come together with the gleaming Amish-grade hardwood floors and custom lighting throughout to create a warm and cozy environment. Heading out from the kitchen is an amazing mudroom that leads straight out to the newly built metal/concrete raised back deck and cozy landscaped back yard that creates a refined space for entertaining or relaxing. The stamped and stained concrete in back add to the experience. This home has been beautifully and thoughtfully renovated to enhance the character and charm while being completely updated to exceed today's standards. The garden 2 bed / 1 bath unit is no exception and makes for a great rental, in-law suite, guest quarters, nanny suite, work space or there's potential to expand the upstairs unit to create an even larger single family home. The garden simplex has 2 bedrooms, 1 modern bath with a tub, a bright and airy living room, a separate dining area, a beautiful custom kitchen with new SS appliances and quartz counters, not to mention in-unit laundry hook-up and warm porcelain tile throughout. All of the mechanicals are new featuring new copper water service, all new underground plumbing with backflow prevent valve, all new 400 Amp electric, new plumbing with each unit having energy efficient furnaces, A/C's and tankless hot water heaters. Both the flat roof and pitched roof are new with new siding, spray insulation for added efficiency, all new energy efficient windows, and new heated flat-roof garage that could be converted to a rooftop deck. There is simply too much to list.
