About this home

Commanding a prominent 100-by-100-foot corner lot on a coveted North Side block, 812 Abbott Street pairs stately brick architecture with polished, move-in-ready living. Fully renovated and updated less than a decade ago, this five-bedroom, 3.5-bath expanded cape residence offers exceptional comfort, flexibility, and curb appeal. Hardwood floors lead from the gracious foyer into a dramatic sunken living room, where high ceilings, illuminated custom built-ins, and a gas fireplace create an elegant gathering space. The gourmet kitchen is equally impressive, featuring two sinks, two ovens, two dishwashers, a gas range, microwave drawer, French-door refrigerator, and island seating. A den or office, a mudroom entrance from the backyard or garage, and an additional main-level full bath enhance everyday convenience. Privately positioned on the first floor, the primary suite feels like a personal retreat with pocket doors opening to 2 large closets and a spa-inspired bath with a step-in shower and soaking tub. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms, a full bath, oversized closets, and abundant storage accommodate a range of needs. The basement expands the possibilities with a full gym, recreation room, laundry, half bath, backyard access, and two sump pumps. Outdoors, a stone patio and dedicated gas line for the grill set the stage for effortless entertaining. A sprinkler system simplifies lawn care, while a Tesla charger supports convenient at-home charging. Wave Air Solutions, two-zone air conditioning, and three-zone heat provide added comfort. The location is close to houses of worship and shopping. Showings start Sunday, Sept 6, 2026.
