Property Description

SOLD BEFORE PRINT. Tucked behind a storybook front yard on a tree-lined block, 4243 N Wolcott is a newly constructed home designed by Hubbard Design Group that blends playful warmth with quiet sophistication. Set on an extra-wide and extra-deep 30' x 154' lot, the home sits back from the street, allowing for a generous green lawn and a welcoming 9' front porch. It's the kind of yard that begs for sidewalk chalk, lemonade stands, and slow Sunday mornings-equal parts privacy and presence. Inside, timeless elegance meets modern comfort. White oak floors, custom millwork, and high ceilings lend every room a sense of refined ease. At the front of the home, the formal living and dining room is anchored by a stately fireplace flanked by tall windows, perfect for holiday dinners or cozy evenings in. It's elevated but never showy-a home where quality speaks quietly. Beyond a graceful arched hallway, the heart of the home opens up: a show-stopping kitchen and family room that balances function and form. The double-sided white oak island seats five, inviting everything from pancake breakfasts to science fair prep. Warm cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a hidden scullery with a second dishwasher and sink make entertaining effortless and everyday life beautifully contained. Arched built-ins surround the family room fireplace, and natural light pours in from front to back. Downstairs, the fully radiant-heated lower level is designed for real life. Host movie nights in the rec room, store your favorites in the glass-enclosed wine cellar, or retreat to the sauna after a long day. There's also a guest suite with a full bath, a flex space perfect for a gym or sixth bedroom, and a wet bar for good measure. Upstairs, family living is reimagined. Four bedrooms-three with ensuite baths-provide comfort and autonomy. The primary suite, now thoughtfully located at the front of the home, offers peaceful treetop views and sunlight throughout the day. A spa-inspired bath features heated floors, a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and private water closet, while a spacious walk-in closet keeps everything in order. And then there's the train-yes, it's behind the house. But what could have been a flaw has been reimagined. The home was pushed back on the lot, creating the deep front yard and quiet indoor acoustics that make the occasional rumble feel more like a hum-city energy at a gentle distance. Inside, you'd hardly notice. Outside, you're reminded that convenience lives just steps away. Location-wise, 4243 N Wolcott straddles the line between North Center and Ravenswood, claiming the best of both. You're in the desired Ravenswood Elementary district - a big plus for families seeking excellent public schools. Within blocks, you'll find family essentials and neighborhood charm in every direction. Saturday mornings start at the Northcenter Farmers Market, where live music, pastries, and produce are as much a ritual as a resource. Grab coffee at Spoken or Hexe on your stroll ho
