One of the best views of the Kankakee River! All of the living areas have great views of the combination of the Kankakee and Iroquois Rivers! Located along the popular 6 mile pool of the boating part of the river. A nice bonus is it is across the river from the unadulterated Shannon Bayou Forest Preserve for a natural view that should never be developed! The home has a large double decker deck (60' long on 2nd level) overlooking the river from either level! Inside, this home has 2 kitchens, 1 upstairs and 1 downstairs plus 4 living areas and 2 dining areas plus a fireplace. The 3 bedrooms have hardwood floors and the washer dryer is upstairs by the bedrooms. The other outstanding feature, besides the location and view, is the 2 attached garages! One is used or the day to day cars and the other can be used for "big boys toys"! It has a balcony and 19' ceiling plus an oversized overhead door from the street and another overhead door facing the river! The 1st floor and both garages have hydronic heat in the floors and 4 zones. The 2nd floor has GFA heat. Central air on both floors. Recent updates include roof - 2014, furnace - 2017, central air - 2019, water softener - 2020. The seawall is 80' long with a 10' wide patio along the river. Kankakee School District offers more program choices than any other area school district. Unique choices like Magnet & Montessori, the Culinary Arts with the Kays Kitchen food truck for those who want experience & are interested in business or the food industry. Also, close to Kankakee Community College, Splash Valley waterpark, the ice arena, the softball diamonds, the marina, the Kankakee Airport with the new National Guard facility with the Blackhawk helicopters, forest preserve plus WalMart, Tractor Supply Co., Hilton Hotel, Kankakee Farmer's Market along with the shops and cafe's in downtown Kankakee and more! The concrete used was the same kind of concrete as was used for the Schuyler Ave bridge built about the same time! Pump house has pump for irrigation system with free water pumped from the Kankakee River, which is said to be the cleanest river in Illinois! Act fast, the seller intends to reserve the dock for the new buyer first, if they are interested, for $25,000 (if it doesn't get sold first)! Ask for AHS home warranty! Start Packin'!
