Units n/a

Set on a prized corner double lot in Peterson Park, 5838 N. Sacramento offers scale, sunlight, and sophisticated comfort. With its high ceilings, flowing floor plan, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, this residence delivers both presence and practicality. The kitchen is anchored by Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and opens directly to the to the backyard through three-panel accordion doors extending the living space to a pergola-covered terrace-perfect for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or evening gatherings. Sunlight fills the adjoining sitting area, while the main level continues with a spacious dining and family room designed for both formal and casual living. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a dramatic spa-style shower and a grand walk-in closet. Upstairs, every bedroom is enhanced with its own walk-in closet, while a dedicated laundry area adds everyday ease. The finished lower level is equally impressive, offering exceptionally high ceilings, a recreation room, a full bath, an additional bedroom, a utility room, and a second laundry center-ideal for guests, extended family, or flexible living. Comfort is ensured year-round with dual HVAC systems, a rare luxury in city homes. Outside, the rare three-car all-brick garage and the expansive landscaped double lot create both privacy and distinction rarely found in the city. Every space has been designed with intention, delivering a home that elevates both daily living and entertaining to a higher standard. Conveniently located near the Kennedy Expressway (1-90/94), making downtown, O'Hare, and the northern suburbs all highly accessible. Multiple shopping centers within a mile of the property. Devon Avenue's shops, bakeries, and restaurants are just around the corner, offering both daily essentials and vibrant local dining. There is a Bus stop a minute away, easy connections to the CTA Brown line and the new Peterson/Ridge Metra Station (UP-N line) for a quick commute downtown. Just blocks away from Peterson Park and North park Village Nature Center-family friendly green spaces with trails, playgrounds and recreation. Families will appreciate being walking distance to Jamieson Elementary and a short drive from top-rated Northside College Prep. This home is as practical as it is beautiful.
