WTTW-Channel 11 contributing anchor Phil Ponce and his wife, Ann, have decided to downsize in a unique way, paying $527,500 in mid-June to buy a three-bedroom ranch cottage on a 1.5-acre property in Northbrook that is steeped in Chicago-area artistic history.
“This home was the locus of their creative activities,” Phil Ponce told Elite Street. “Whenever someone in their sphere would come to Chicago, they would come here. This was the Midwestern version of the Bloomsbury Group.”“My wife paints and my daughter and daughter-in-law are photographers,” he said. “The history of this property spoke to us, and the creative spirit in this home is palpable.”
“My head almost exploded,” said Ponce, who added that he plans to start to implement Jensen’s plan on the property. “This property lends itself to the kind of planning that Jens Jensen put in.” Built in 1941 and designed by architect Robert Seyfarth, the three-bedroom, 1,696-square-foot ranch cottage that the Ponces bought has two full bathrooms, two fireplaces, a galley kitchen, eight-inch-wide plank hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows, and two closets in the primary bedroom. Other features include an attached two-car garage and a partial basement.
