A rare home on the Chicago River

Homes that have the Chicago River for a back yard aren’t all that unusual. But, when you begin looking for newer construction homes the group narrows considerably. If Craftsman style is one of your wish-list items, your options are limited to a very few homes.

A 2003-vintage Craftsman-style home at 4148 N Rockwell St just came on the market. It’s one of the seven homes in the cluster pictured above.

The 4,500 square foot, 5-bedroom, 3 ½ bath, 2-car garage home has the river for its back yard and an expansive vista onto Horner Park on the river’s west bank.

The North Center location affords easy access to the thriving retail and dining scene in Lincoln Square.

Coldwell Banker’s Ed Jelinek has the listing, which is offered at $1,099,000.
