This south facing 1901 brick stunner was gut renovated by an interior designer in 2021 with attention to detail and historical accuracy at the forefront of the renovation process. The inky black curved Victorian staircase is a show stopping entry to the home and architectural elements such as wall panel molding, ceiling medallions, arches and intricate trim add depth and visual interest to the otherwise muted creamy white walls. The kitchen is modern and sophisticated with white oak cabinetr

Reviews for Courtyard venues in Chicago, IL

Chris C.

We had a great experience shooting scenes for our feature film production at this location. Nicole, Todd, and Stephanie were terrific with communication and really went the extra mile to accommodate our needs. We would definitely work with them again on another project!

Kristin R.

A beautiful and unique space. Wonderful hosts. Very accommodating to our needs and willing to go the extra mile. Would absolutely come back and recommend to anyone!

Tayler G.

We LOVED this space! I would film every shoot here if I could. Emily & Eric's home is absolutely beautiful and already dressed to perfection making it an art department's dream. Emily & Eric are also probably the nicest location hosts I've come across - super communicative and just all around good, genuine people.

Melissa M.

This space is an amazing home location for a video shoot. Emily is very communicative, welcoming and allowed us to film in her home for a full day of video production. The space was clean upon arrival, was spacious with a large backyard for crew and gear holding. There is also a back alley way that was extremely helpful for loading in and out of the space. I would highly recommend this location to any producer!

Barbara F.

This is the 2nd time we did a video shoot in this wonderful home....we had such a great experience the first time, that we came back for another shoot! The home is beautifully furnished with an artistic flair and the homeowners are great. They are excellent communicators and very professional and friendly. I can't wait to come back again! We had a perfect experience.

Barbara F.

This location is excellent and the home owners are wonderful! Highly, highly recommended. A++++++++++
