About 2210 West North Avenue
First time ever on the market! Recipient of the American Institute of Architects' Distinguished Building Award in 1998, this truly one-of-a-kind contemporary live/work space in the heart of Bucktown was designed by renowned architect Wheeler Kearns. Custom designed and built for the owners with form + function in mind, this double lot duplex architectural stunner houses both offices and personal residence with 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, powder room, and wet bar/coffee station within towering 11+ foot raw concrete ceilings and exposed industrial chic ductwork and pigmented floors throughout. The street side of the property serves as a fully functioning creative office (4 large offices, library, conference room and dual seating areas with windows outfitted with both blackout + light-diffusing shades), while the north side (or back side) serves as the private residence with an expansive open plan living/dining room and kitchen with huge window facing the private garden. Both spaces showcase open air steel staircases and custom furniture designed to complement the dramatic and oversized MDF pivot doors that ingeniously divide the office from the living space. Groundbreaking design and use of space, this unique building can be kept as is - an ideal live/work situation for an architect, photographer, or other creative agency, as it has served for the last almost 30 years, easily converted to a sprawling full single-family home, or one very cool commercial space. The options are endless and the design timeless. Currently zoned B3-2 and ideally located steps from the Milwaukee or Damen CTA stops, I-94, Bucktown shops and restaurants, and the 606. Landscaped garden oasis, fire pit, seating area, 2+ car garage with storage room, and engineered to build up. Loads of wow factor and value-add. WELCOME HOME.
