Walk through the historic front door from turn-of-the-century Chicago and you're in a modern Arts and Crafts home.

The personal home of an architect and builder, with an engineering background, this is a home that is not only beautiful but solidly built and where things make sense. The unique layout centers on the hexagonal core from top to bottom. This creates special spaces on each of 4 levels from which emanate 3 wings. Cupola can seat 15 people where treetop views take in the wide bay and winter views afford glimpses into the next bay and big water. Once you climb the spiral stair,cozy lighting makes it a hideaway space. Beautiful hickory cabinets throughout add richness and abundant storage. Cedar tongue-and-groove vaulted ceilings in the master and porch create natural warmth. Three upper bedrooms have vaulted ceilings and window nooks,full baths,walk-in closets and each has a "secret room" tucked into the eaves. Master has custom affixed ladder to a charming loft space.
