Welcome to this move-in ready home perched on a hill with seasonal views of Fox Lake-offering a rare combination of location, updates, and lifestyle. Just minutes away, enjoy one of Fox Lake's best features: its lakefront parks and recreation area, including the local aquatic center and splash pad, designed for all ages with beach-entry access, water features, and community events throughout the year. This isn't just a house-it's access to a true lake community lifestyle. Inside, you'll find fresh paint throughout and multiple living areas, giving flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. The lower level features a full bathroom, a large picture window that brings in natural light, and a full bedroom. This space is so ample it can easily serve as an office, gym, or rec room and bedroom at the same time. The main level is bright and functional, while the upstairs bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub for added comfort. Major updates include a newer roof and water heater. A standout feature is the garage-extra deep and significantly taller than standard, offering nearly double the height and nearly double the space than of a typical one-car garage. Perfect for storage, a workshop, or accommodating larger vehicles. Step outside to a large backyard ideal for relaxing or entertaining, while the front yard offers elevated views of Fox Lake-plus a direct view of local fireworks. Directly north of the home, you'll find the pathways, offering biking and walking access that connects you to the broader area-perfect for recreation or an easy ride into town. Clean, updated, and truly move-in ready-this home combines elevated views, flexible living space, and access to everything that makes Fox Lake a destination.
