Real estate, Lincoln Park, Chicago

This home made our list because of how buyers reacted to it, not because of its price. It drew 609 saves on Zillow, well above what most listings see. That is 3.2 times the average save count among this week's finalists. A group of buyers already has alerts set for homes like it. Here is the home behind those numbers.

A kitchen built as the centerpiece

A brick paver entry leads to a front hall finished in marble checkerboard flooring. Custom wainscoting and millwork carry through the main living spaces. Two bedrooms sit upstairs, and a large lower level adds flexible space for an office, gym, or media room. Three full bathrooms and an attached two-car garage round out the home.

From the listing: “Timeless architectural character meets sophisticated modern living in this beautifully enhanced Lincoln Park single family home.”
