Universal Design in Luxury Chicago Home
New home design is the wave of the future
CHICAGO, IL, May 23, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Construction is complete on a first-of-its-kind single-family home in Chicago. Hermitage House was built based on Universal Design principles, a design aesthetic that blends beauty with livability, including accessibility features throughout the house. It’s a perfect home for all families, and accommodating for people with disabilities or the elderly.
The luxury home has been listed for sale at $1.85 million. Built on a 165’ lot, the 4,500-square-foot house has wide hallways, an elevator, open spaces, and curbless entryways. There are five bedrooms and four bathrooms in the main house. A one-bedroom apartment is attached to the rear of the house and designed for independent living. An enormous great room holds the living, dining, and kitchen areas. There is a three car garage in the rear and a tranquil central courtyard. The house meets LEED's Silver standard for energy efficiency.
Hermitage House is a development project of PH2 Square, LLC. PH2 is dedicated to designing, developing, and building dwellings based on Universal Design principles to create thoughtful home environments for families with young children, individuals with disabilities, seniors, and multi-generational families living under one roof.
