Description

If you've been dreaming of something a little magical, a little different - a home that feels like a hideaway - this could be the one. Welcome to 1911 Highview Ave, a unique, enchanting 3-bedroom, 2-bath home that offers a rare blend of charm, privacy, and personality, with a backyard that feels like your very own hidden forest. Step inside and you'll find nearly 2000 sq ft of living space accented by hardwood floors, hickory kitchen cabinets, porcelain tile with matching backsplash, and a cozy breakfast bar. The kitchen is outfitted with LG appliances (stove, refrigerator, microwave), a Bosch dishwasher, Kraus sink with touch faucet, and a mudroom with doors to both the deck and driveway. The first floor bath features slate flooring, a new vanity bowl, and a slate shower. The full basement adds even more flexibility and space! A welcoming rec room with built-in entertainment center and speakers is perfect for movie nights or game day gatherings. There's also a quiet office space with two closets that some might use as a guest room, plus a full bath, laundry area, and generous storage options. A newer sump pump with Watch-Dog battery backup (2024) and a newer water heater give you peace of mind. Outside is where this home truly shines - starting with the inviting front porch, one of the seller's favorite spots. The yard is a thoughtfully landscaped 1/4 acre of privacy, with mature trees and 15+ young evergreens and bushes creating a serene, secluded feel. A whimsical bridge crosses a man-made creek bed, leading to a gathering area that's perfect for summer campouts, cozy bonfires, and backyard get-togethers. You will also find a newly stained deck and new driveway. A 2-car heated garage with workshop and separate breaker panel & exhaust fan completes the package. The location is a true highlight - the home sits on a quiet interior street just minutes from McCullom Lake where you can fish, kayak, paddleboard, or launch your small motorized boat or pontoon. The neighborhood boasts 5 parks, one of which has the Illinois Prairie Trail running through it - perfect for biking, running, and enjoying nature. Enjoy convenient access to Northwestern Medicine McHenry Hospital, McHenry Country Club for golf enthusiasts, and the area's many community highlights. McHenry boasts three vibrant downtown districts, including the scenic Riverwalk and Riverwalk Shoppes, where you can dine, shop, and stroll along the Fox River. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the city's 36 parks, 640 acres of public space, and a 18,200-square-foot recreation center, offering endless opportunities for recreation. Families value the highly regarded McHenry schools, where the high school provides Advanced Placement and dual credit programs for college readiness. Commuters will love the nearby Metra station, making trips to downtown Chicago simple and convenient. A 1 year Home Warranty included for peace of mind! This home's versatile floor plan and forest-like backyard make it a rare find - add it to your must-see list.
