Description

Nestled on three wooded lots totaling just under an acre, this beautifully maintained, custom-built Craftsman-style home offers the perfect blend of privacy, charm, and convenience. Located within walking distance of Fox Lake, the newly renovated Lakefront Park and beach, and the Metra train station, this property is ideal for nature lovers, water sports enthusiasts, and commuters alike. Step onto the welcoming front porch and into the foyer, where you'll find bamboo flooring that flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining room. The kitchen is outfitted with 42" maple cabinetry, a center island with a breakfast bar, pendant lighting, and direct access to the dining area. A sliding glass door leads from the dining room to a large deck featuring a gas line hookup for your grill and overlooking the serene, wooded backyard-perfect for entertaining, outdoor dining, and relaxing. The living room boasts a cozy fireplace, recessed lighting, carpeted flooring, and an open-concept layout that connects effortlessly to the kitchen. A powder room with a pedestal sink completes the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite features a vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with marble tile flooring, maple cabinetry, a whirlpool tub, and a separate shower. The two additional bedrooms are carpeted, offer wooded views, and have bi-fold closets; one is currently used as a home office. A second full bathroom with ceramic tile flooring, a maple vanity, and a one-piece tub/shower, along with a conveniently located laundry area, complete the upper level. The full walk-out basement is ready for your finishing touches-ideal for a fourth bedroom, home theater, or recreation room. Exterior features include fiber cement siding, an asphalt shingle roof, and vinyl windows. The 2.5-car garage offers 10-foot ceilings, a workbench, and built-in shelving. There are three lots, each with its own property index number: one buildable lot to the southwest, the primary homesite, and one landlocked, non-buildable lot to the south. Don't miss this unique opportunity to own a private wooded retreat near Fox Lake, with excellent access to both recreation and transportation.Show Description
