Available for the first time in 54 years, 9401 S. Longwood Drive presents a rare opportunity to own a distinctive residence in Chicago's Beverly neighborhood. Built in 1892 for Laurin P. Hilliard and attributed to architect Harry Hale Waterman, this home brings together architectural heritage and the welcoming character of one of Chicago's most beloved neighborhoods. A striking reception hall showcases an intricate wood staircase with turned spindles, curved handrails, paneled woodwork, and decorative carved stair brackets. The custom three-panel leaded-glass window adorned with fan-shaped geometric patterns and textured glass in shades of emerald, pale green, golden yellow, and amber provides an artistic embellishment and helps to illuminate the entry. Offering six bedrooms, one full bath, and three half baths, the residence provides space for everyday living, hosting guests, and working from home. A double-sided fireplace adds warmth and character, while the park-like lot creates a peaceful backdrop for outdoor gatherings. A custom deck and two-car garage complete the property. Featured in The Architecture of Chicago's Beverly Hills / Morgan Park, with photography by Mati Maldre, the home's story reaches back to a remarkable chapter in Chicago's development. Hilliard helped establish the communities that became Washington Heights, Longwood, and Beverly Hills. Waterman's early career unfolded in the architectural world surrounding the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, whose influence on his work has been explored by the Ridge Historical Society. His neighborhood legacy includes the nearby Eugene S. Pike House. Rich in craftsmanship, history, and possibility, this distinctive Longwood Drive residence awaits its next chapter. Home is being sold AS-IS.
