    What's special

    Sited on one very private acre behind handsome iron gates, east of Sheridan Road, this is a very special home. It was originally the gardener's cottage to the Cyrus McCormick estate in the 1900's. It was built with exceptional quality and solid construction. Interesting floor plan with opportunity to expand. The greenhouse was rebuilt and serves as terrific living space. Home office on the second floor. Sun room with views of the beautiful private lot. Family Room with vaulted ceiling on the second floor.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
