Looking for that sweet getaway home in Shadow Lakes? This 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home is nestled up to a private back yard, landscaped meticulously! The home has been very well maintained. Open floor plan, eat in kitchen and all stainless steel appliances stay. Plenty of windows to let in the natural light, give a rustic feel with the custom trim. Seperate laundry room with washer / dryer and cabinets, leads to the attached one car garage with workshop area. Garage has an epoxy floor and extra service door for easy access. Outside, enjoy the natural flow of the landscaped backyard. We included summer pictures to show the beauty it provides. Block patio pavers in the back for private nights, or covered front porch in the front for morning coffee, this home has it all. Items to mention: Paved driveway, skylight, shed with electric on concrete, upgraded blinds in windows, paver sidewalk. Ring doorbell will be replaced with light.*. This is a private gated community. We have miles of fresh water channels, lakes, and marshes all interconnecting. This is the place to fish, swim, or boat, where it can reach 42 feet deep in some areas. (BIG FISH POSSIBILITIES!) Wildlife is abundant as well. This association includes a club house, community pool, a separate sand beach, pavilion, dog park, volleyball and basketball area (other games as well). They offer plenty of family and group activities. Other important notes: Close to I55 & only 60 Mins. from Chicago. Only Electric Boats & Golf Carts allowed. Association Dues are on a tiered basis and depend on the time you spend at the property- . Dues include water, sewer and garbage. Buyer / Buyer's agent to call Shadow Lakes to verify all rules / info. Lot size and square footage is estimated.
