Property Description

Discover this beautifully renovated Cape Cod home, fully rehabbed in 2022 with major updates including a new roof, modernized mechanicals, Bluetooth surround sound throughout the entire home, and a stylish, updated kitchen. Thoughtful recent improvements add even more value: a brand-new full basement bathroom (2025), upgraded water service and main sewer line (2024), a rear retaining wall (2024), a low maintenance "screwless" Trex deck with composite railings (2023), and a charming front picket fence (2023). Tucked among mature trees on the scenic Fox Lake peninsula, this move-in ready gem is just up the hill from the Fox Lake Metra station and the village's brand-new waterfront park. Walk down to enjoy live music at the summer concert series held at the new pavilion or join a game of pickleball at the nearby recreation complex. Conveniently located near US-12, you're only a short drive from Wilmot Mountain and less than 30 minutes from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Live the lake life in a vibrant community known for boating, fishing, and year-round recreation on the Chain O'Lakes, the largest inland waterway in Illinois. Fox Lake offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and modern amenities, making this an ideal place to call home
