Calling All Classics Fans: Columns Aplenty In Sox Owner's Highland Park Home

HIGHLAND PARK, IL — If you like columns and want to put your own finishing touches on a home, look no further this 1970-built Parthenon-esque property listed Monday for just over $1 million.

Located just off Green Bay Road and blocks from downtown Highland Park, 1035 Carlyle Ter. combines the classical with the colonial as it welcomes visitors with a crystal chandelier in its two-story foyer.

The 2374-square-foot basement is finished, but the third floor is not. The basement features three rec rooms and a storage room. It remains for the next owner to decide how to complete the arched attic level to add to the existing 4352 square feet of above ground living space.

Among its 14 rooms, the home includes five bedrooms, four and a half bedrooms, a breakfast room, office, game room, fireplace, wet bar and first floor laundry. The back yard includes a brick patio, and according to the listing, two bathrooms and several mechanical elements have already been replaced.

According to property records, the home is owned by the family of the late Irwin Jacobson, an accountant and co-owner of the Chicago White Sox. The Lake County Assessor estimated the market value of the home at $1,128,159 in 2017.
