Enchanting Entry Sets the ToneThis sophisticated and elegant Mediterranean estate is situated on a beautifully landscaped private wooded lot (3/4 acre) in a premiere Hubbard Woods neighborhood. Renovated with high-end and imported materials consistent with the integrity of the home and complimentary to the home's architectural antiquities (17th and 18th century). This magical home transports you to another place and another time, reminiscent of a vacation to the Tuscan countryside or the homes of Provence. The current owner has been honored to be the caretaker of this special home.

History: This elegant home was built in the 1920's by noted Chicago architect Russel S. Wolcott for a prominent Spanish ballerina. Longing for Spain, she built this Mediterranean estate with great care using wood, tiles, timbers and artifacts from an old church in Spain which she knew from childhood. The home was doubled in size with an extensive addition in 1990, when the house was also updated in terms of systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc.).
