About the host

Hosted by Aimee and Adam

Host profile image
Adam and Aimee grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and currently reside in the City's Bucktown neighborhood with their rescue lab/ pointer and toddler son. Aimee is in management for a Genetic Cancer Testing Laboratory and Adam is an entrepreneur in the promotional products and real estate space. We both love the peace and quiet of this home in both summer and winter, although we prefer flip flops over boots.

Why they chose this property

We looked at one house and this was it! The charm of the home and close proximity to restaurants and Washington Park /Zoo/Marina were so wonderful but the cherry on top was the lakefront access and the beautiful grass back yard. We have worked to update the home while keeping the historic character in tact.

What makes this property unique

This home is located on the lakefront and does not have a access from a street making peace and quiet a priority.
It has a wonderful green back yard if you just want to hang out there and enjoy the deck and a game of corn hole. The house interior is charming with archways and original fireplace and sconces. We hope you find it as restful of a haven as we do. (But we are known to dance on the lawn to loud music too).
