Property Description
The much admired, historically significant H.P. Young house was built in 1869 and remodeled by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1895. An exquisite blend of the Queen Anne Transitional and Prairie Styles, this 4700 square foot home has been beautifully restored and renovated for 21st century living. Located on one of Oak Park's most coveted blocks in the FLW district and only a short walk to schools, parks, shops, restaurants, the library, the green Line and Metra. Featured on Wright Plus several times and one of the highlighted homes on the FLW neighborhood walking tour, 334's outstanding curb appeal is enhanced by the porte-cochere, inviting front porch and circular sunroom. Original, interior architectural features include a striking roman brick fireplace, oak woodwork and floors, banded oak ceilings, art glass and lead glass windows and grand main staircase. The current owners have done extensive structural work under the direction of esteemed architect John Thorpe and all the original windows have been restored with custom screens and storms. A major 2012 remodeling project included an all new high end kitchen, a spacious mudroom, a rebuilt back staircase and an extended family room with new hardwood floor, windows, automatic shades and surround sound. The completely rebuilt back screened porch opens to the private backyard with custom pizza/bread oven, blue stone patio, paver brick grilling area and garden beds. A gated side drive leads to a 2 car garage with loft storage. The entire back exterior of the house was redone in cedar siding and a new basement entrance added. There are 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a spacious office on the 2nd level. The primary suite has a decorative fireplace, diamond pane windows and a private bath with whirlpool tub, separate shower and convenient washer & dryer. The massive 3rd floor has a theatre area, full bath and a sun filled sewing room/art studio. This flexible space is ideal as a teen get-away, nanny's quarters, in-law/guest suite or in home office. The full basement has epoxy flooring, a kitchenette, half bath, workshop and generous storage areas. A generator offers peace of mind if there is a neighborhood power outage. 334 Kenilworth is an architectural masterpiece and a wonderful, functional home for today's lifestyles. A great opportunity to own a piece of history!
