The home at 600 N. Kenilworth, which the foundation put up for sale , has apparently been bought by an Oak Park family. Details have not been released about the buyer, and it is currently unclear whether or not the home will be restored, according to CBS Chicago. (Via Huffington Post)

The foundation will turn the keys over soon, leaving a short window for visitors to take a guided tour. According to the EHFOP website:

Although there may be occasional opportunities in the future where the family can invite public visitation, this last chance to stroll through the rooms with Hemingway docents leading the way is very special. Stories about Ernest, his five siblings and parents Grace and Dr. Clarence Hemingway, living an exuberant family life from 1907 until Ernest left in 1919 and Grace left in 1936, will be memorable. This building is an international icon and few changes have been made since Grace Hemingway began planning her dream home in 1906.

So if you've always planned to make it over there but never followed through, here's your chance to experience a piece of local literary history.
