Description

Spectacular water-view property featuring a 3-bedroom, 3-bath main home plus a private-entry 1-bedroom apartment; ideal for multi-generational living or investors seeking income potential. Located across from a riverside park, the home offers stunning water views from the living room, primary suite, and expansive two-tier wrap-around deck. The main level features spacious rooms, a kitchen with stone countertops, stainless-steel appliances, center island, and deck access, plus a dining area for gathering. The living room includes a fireplace and panoramic views, while the family room offers a wood-burning fireplace. Two bedrooms with private baths complete the main level. The entire second floor is the primary suite with vaulted ceilings, oversized walk-in closet, and spa-like bath with jetted tub, separate shower, dual vanity, and bidet. Additional highlights include a partial basement and oversized heated 3-car garage with space for a boat, motorhome, and recreational gear. Home interior has fresh paint and new carpet. There's a separate entrance apartment with cozy living room fireplace, full kitchen, bedroom, bath with shower, and washer/dryer. Local lore even suggests a hidden tunnel once connected the home to the Fox River Grove train station and was used by Al Capone. A rare combination of scenic beauty, flexibility, and income potential. Home is being sold As-Is. Note: New roof on hot tub deck in 11/2026.
