Norwood Park

Description

Built in the mid-1800s and fully restored in 2023, the Wingert House stands as a rare example of early Chicago farmhouse architecture. We led a complete interior gut renovation while preserving the home’s landmark exterior—reviving its cedar siding, heritage windows, and detailed trim work to meet preservation standards. Inside, the reimagined floor plan features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a dramatic open living space with 14-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and brand-new hardwood flooring. The chef’s kitchen includes custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, and an adjacent dining nook that opens onto a rear deck overlooking a landscaped backyard oasis—rare for a city lot of this size. Additional highlights include a first-floor primary suite with a walk-in closet, a finished basement for flexible living or storage, a dual-zoned HVAC system, and a detached 3-car garage with storage above. Located on a 12,000+ sq ft lot in Norwood Park, this home reflects a seamless blend of modern functionality and architectural preservation—executed with respect, precision, and pride.
