Step into a piece of local legacy with this Sylvan Beach gem, originally crafted in 1892 for John Nuveen, a prominent Chicago figure. Spanning four floors, this historic cottage preserves an era of craftsmanship and charm. Boasting 6 bedrooms, 3 baths, a large sleeping porch, and a 3-season room overlooking Lake Michigan, it marries classic design with modern comforts. Relish in the wood-burning fireplace of the inviting living room and savor meals in the elegant dining room with open air balcony. The mid-century kitchen, complete with a butler's pantry, exudes timeless allure. Enjoy sunny mornings in the breakfast porch or host gatherings on the lakeside deck with private beach access. For added convenience, a detached garage houses a one-bedroom apartment, ideal for guests. Whe
