This charming home looks like a German Chalet that one might find in the Sherwood Forest. What an incredible location with breathtaking views of Duck Lake. This beautiful home with knotty pine ceiling was built up higher then the oversized lot and the home features a large family room with bay window, skylight, an office nook which originally had a hot tub in this corner, a bar area and brick wood burning fireplace with lovely mantle. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. One bedroom & full bath is located on the first floor. The kitchen & first floor full bathroom have been updated. The kitchen is open to the formal dining room and living room for a nice open concept with lovely views of the lake through the sliding glass doors. This is a unique property with a private boat launch, an oversized detached garage, a partially fenced yard and storage shed all located on .423 Acres. This is a rare find and the map shows that it is on a channel but it is actually on the Lakefront with a small island in front of the home....making for a real peaceful serene place to live. There is also a newer pier, a screened gazebo, boathouse, fenced in dog run area & large detached garage. Also there is a large storage shed for water toys that has a gravel driveway pad where you can park your RV here. Duck Lake is a 110 Acre lake in northern Illinois where you can enjoy all watersports including water skiing, wave runners and terrific fishing. The photo of the swans was taken in this yard. The outside deck and the flooring on the first & 2nd floor need to be replaced.
