A truly rare opportunity to own one of Highland Park's most historically significant homes. Offered for the first time in nearly 65 years, 333 Hazel Avenue was once the workshop of Elisha Gray, the brilliant inventor, co-founder of Western Electric, and the man many historians credit with developing the first successful telephone prototype. Perfectly situated on one of Highland Park's most sought-after streets, this 3-bedroom, 3.1-bath home with a dedicated den, an extra upstairs room, and a large attic, offers an exceptional opportunity to restore, reimagine, or renovate a truly special property. Tucked away at the end of the street and backing to a picturesque ravine on two sides, the setting provides outstanding privacy while remaining just steps from Lake Michigan, downtown Highland Park, Metra, parks, restaurants, shopping, and everything the community has to offer. The home is ready for its next chapter and presents an incredible canvas for buyers with vision to create a one-of-a-kind residence while preserving its remarkable legacy. Opportunities to own a home with this combination of history, location, privacy, and potential are exceedingly rare. Bring your ideas and make this iconic Highland Park property your own.
