223 S Clay Street

Located in the perfect walk-to-town location on a 60x170 lot near schools and the train, this gorgeously updated home is a triumph presenting a blend of original architectural detailing and modern-day appointments. You'll be immediately charmed by the wrap-around porch perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The entrance continues the charm as a sun-lit foyer with soaring double-height ceilings welcomes you inside the approx. 4,500 square-foot interiors. The main level flows effortlessly from a spacious formal living room, cozy family room warmed by an ornately carved fireplace and elegant formal dining room. An extensive and thoughtful renovation brought the reimagining of the kitchen, with its classic white cabinetry, herringbone marble backsplash, striking brass hood and stainless steel appliances. An adjoining walk-in pantry provides extra storage space. Just off the kitchen, an expansive sunroom is dramatically embraced by a glass ceiling and wall-to-wall paned windows and doors that open to the backyard - a perfect space for year-round entertaining. A finished basement level provides extra space for entertaining with a recreation room, full bath, laundry room and storage. Residing on the second level are two bedrooms and two full baths. This includes the private primary bedroom suite with a large walk-in-closet and a remodeled bath with soaking tub and separate shower. The third level contains an open sitting area and three bedrooms with two half baths that share a large bathing space. Stained glass windows, original moldings and hardwood floors are among the many original elements that pay homage to the home's charm. An added bonus is the detached four car garage! Exquisitely envisioned for today's lifestyle with an artful eye to the past, this home is a rare jewel in the heart of Hinsdale. July 30th or later close.
