Updated 1.5-story home with flexible living space, major mechanical improvements already completed, & a location just blocks from Pistakee Lake & the Fox Chain-O-Lakes. Minutes from downtown Fox Lake & free from HOA restrictions, this home offers a practical layout with two spacious main-floor bedrooms & a third bedroom upstairs that could also work well as a home office, playroom, or hobby space. Natural light fills the interior, freshly painted rooms, & brand-new upstairs carpet adds move-in-ready appeal. Key 2020 updates include the furnace, roof, basement replumbing, & water heater. Earlier improvements include exterior siding in 2016, stainless kitchen appliances in 2017, & a washing machine replaced in 2019. The fully fenced backyard provides functional outdoor space with a greenhouse & an oversized shed for storage, projects, or gardening.
