Renowned North Side Mansion Re-Listed For $8.95M

WOW House: the home's stunning interior design has gained headlines since its completion in 2010.

CHICAGO, IL — A well-known mansion in the city's Lincoln Park neighborhood has been re-listed after it went up for sale about two years ago for the same price. The home at 1970 N Burling Street was designed by the firm Liederback & Graham Architects, and its contractor, John Novak of Novak Construction, owns the mansion. Its interior design features exposed brick and industrial metal throughout.

Sitting on a 45-foot-wide lot, the house sits inside of a walled 'secret' urban garden, with the entire ground level of the house open to the outdoors. The 7,800-square-foot mansion has five bedrooms and six full bathrooms.

The home also features a 900-bottle wine cellar and tasting room, a sauna and a guest suite coach house with a full kitchen and living room. There is even a lofted bedroom accessed by an industrial steel ladder, in addition to the large bedroom with vaulted ceilings.
