Description
Fantastic riverfront 3 bedroom 2 bath meticulously maintained brick ranch with attached garage located on the widest and calmest part of the upper Fox River. Open the main entry door and what do you see ahead? Beautiful views of the Fox River through the living room's French doors and pair of full glass side panels leading out to the fabulous brick and stone patio. The living room also features lovely built-in cabinetry & bookcases, and the raised hearth Lannon stone fireplace anchors the room. Dining area offers a peaceful river view, as does the family room complemented by cathedral ceiling, perfectly curated nautical wool carpet, cozy window seat and glass all around offering amazing panoramic water views. Gorgeous kitchen remodeled in 2018 boasts beautiful white cabinets with crown moldings, sparkling granite counters & ceramic tile backsplash and premium stainless steel appliances... including KitchenAid refrigerator & microwave, beverage cooler, ice maker, Bosch dishwasher and Wolf 6 burner range. The hallway between the kitchen and foyer offers all the practical conveniences with access to the huge double door pantry, utility/laundry room, guest closet and cozy bench just inside the door. Laundry room offers washer, dryer and shelving but also provides easy access to the furnace, premium Kinetico water softener and water heater. The warmth of the stunning oak hardwood flooring encompasses the heart of the home... from the foyer to the living room, through the dining room, kitchen and back around to the hallway. Spacious master bedroom features large bay window overlooking the river, window seat and private bath with towel warmer and shower. Second bedroom is also a nice size, and main bathroom features a double sink vanity and tub with shower doors. The third bedroom is more like a bunkroom for guests and offers space for a small office area plus a barn style door that creates the private room off the kitchen... add an 8-foot wall and move the barn door and this could easily be a separate mudroom type entry and more private third bedroom. Also here are doors to the side yard walkway and attached 2-1/2 car finished garage. Beautifully landscaped yard and outdoor space offers a park-like setting to enjoy the morning sun and breathtaking views over the river. The permanent pier system features a large sundeck. Also featured is the beautiful Door County Weathered Edge outcropping stonework along the 60 feet of river frontage, riverside patio with recessed fire pit, around paver patio, walkway alongside home from front to back and landing at main entry. Concrete driveway parks at least 6 vehicles. This home was used as a second home until 2020 has only been used as a primary residence for the past 5 years. Major updates occurred in 2007 and include roof, Andersen windows & glass doors, beautiful woodwork & moldings, concrete & stonework including driveway & patio expansions, walkways & seawall, electrical panel, extensive recessed lighting & sound system, HVAC, bunkroom cathedral ceiling & skylights and both bathroom updates including expanding master bath & travertine floors. Pier decking and sundeck added to dock 2012-2013. Highly desirable neighborhood offers public sewers and private water company. Enjoy boating north up the river to downtown McHenry entertainment, dining, riverwalk and park... continue north for a tour of the entire Chain O'Lakes... or go south through the locks for a boat ride with more natural shorelines and meandering river bends. This is also a perfect location if you enjoy kayaking or paddle boarding. Don't miss this opportunity to have a wonderful waterfront home!
