About this House

House AND Coach House - Two for the price of one! You'll feel like Hansel and Gretel as you explore the wooded grounds, walking trails and exceptional landscaping while admiring the beautiful sunsets, starlit skies, wintertime water views and wildlife with this pair of storybook-like residences. Located on a quiet non-thru street, the 2100 s/f main house offers eye-catching architecture featuring dramatic vaulted ceilings supported by massive solid beams constructed in the Jerkinhead style, providing exceptional strength. Enjoy the beautiful stainless-steel kitchen, granite countertops and custom maple cabinetry, all open to the dining area and dramatic, vaulted living room where you can relax by the stone fireplace. The convenient first floor master bedroom suite and walk-in closet are backed up by two second floor bedrooms. An open, dramatic bridge offers a beautiful view below and is the perfect space for an office for at-home professionals. Above the spacious two car garage is a fully equipped 900 s/f, 2-story Coach House complete with full kitchen, full bath, and two bedrooms featuring the same architecture found in the big house. It can be a private office, a perfect "mother-in-law" residence, housing for a long-term renter, or a space for the boomerang college graduate. Near both buildings is a screened-in gazebo, perfect for dining al fresco, entertaining guests, or just relaxing safe from summertime mosquitos and inclement weather. Even the nearby shed is constructed with the same Jerkinhead roof style. Included is a beautiful adjacent 1-acre-plus, wooded, buildable lot with walking paths. Choose to maintain the wooded privacy or maybe spec a house on it one day. All this is literally only seconds from the extensive Fox River Chain, 24 minutes from the Wilmot Ski Area, 34 minutes to Lake Geneva, or 55 minutes to board a plane at O'Hare and fly anywhere in the world. Truly an amazing property for singles and families, large and small.
