Earlier today I spent an hour walking through and marveling at the Francis J. Dewes House in Lincoln Park.
The home was one of the most lavishly detailed and decorated homes in Chicago when it was built in the 1890s, and remains in that category today. It’s a Chicago landmark, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The home has undergone a 6-year restoration and renovation, and is expected to be on the market soon, priced at $9.9 million.
Many thanks to Koenig & Strey’s Mary Bennett for arranging access to the home for me.
In this part of my tour I walk through the public spaces of the home, one of the many highlights of which is a spectacular staircase with a stained-glass window wall at the landing level.
