The outdoor space features a fenced custom in-ground pool with new pool heater, Beta and Dolphin automatic pool cleaners, patio, and ample space for outdoor enjoyment and entertaining. A natural gas line for a grill is located off the patio. The flexible floor plan includes a main-level office or optional 5th bedroom adjacent to a full bath, providing additional flexibility for guests, hobbies, or office use. The laundry room includes a utility sink and direct access to the 3-car garage. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a large walk-in closet and private bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Three additional generously sized bedrooms offer excellent closet space. The finished basement provides a large recreation room, half bath, and ample storage; the half bath can be converted to a full bath, with the drain located inside the wall. Additional updates include dual HVAC systems, NEW roof and gutters (2020), newer water heater approximately 3 years old, and newer main-level carpeting. Gazebos, outdoor furniture, deck boxes, and bedroom TVs will stay with the home. Conveniently located near parks, playgrounds, more than 30 miles of the Millennium Trail, Lakewood Forest Preserve, a dog park, Bangs Lake, and downtown Wauconda with restaurants, shopping, festivals, and lakefront activities.
