1452 FARGO AVENUE
CHICAGO


This majestic Queen Anne Victorian mansion was built in 1893. The masterful restoration of over twenty years involved a major financial investment by the current owner. It was his vision, energy and skilled craft that converted this former apartment building into the spectacular house that it is today. The home stands on a double lot just 1 1/2 blocks from the beach. The open kitchen accommodates a group of friends or family. Swing on the front porch or grill out in the private back yard complete with a deck, rose garden and pond. For chilly nights, there are 2 wood-burning fireplaces to cozy up to. This is not a fixer-upper. All the original electrical has been replaced, new copper plumbing, newer hot water tank, 3 new furnaces, 2 separate a/c units and 55 windows were replaced. The craftsmanship in this home is priceless and could not be built for this price today.
