Your own little escape on the Kankakee river, this charming 1 bedroom 1 bath riverfront cottage offers approximately 560 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space, direct water access, and panoramic river views. The interior has been remodeled to make the most of the setting, including a new vaulted ceiling thats gives the compact space an open airy feel. A wall of riverfront windows brings in an abundance of natural light and provides sweeping views of the river throughout the main living area. Warm pine tongue and groove, new hickory cabinets with butcher block top, give the cottage a rustic feel without sacrificing modern comfort. A long list of recent improvements means much of the work has already been done: a new roof, new siding and soffit, new mini split with heating and air conditioning, new tankless water heater, new shallow well pump and sandpoint, finally new hickory cabinetry. Outside mature trees provide shade and comfort, while the deck and direct river access make it easy to enjoy everything that comes with life on the Kankakee- morning coffee over looking the water, afternoons outside, fishing, boating, jetskiing, or simply unwinding by the river. Impressive sized lot and shed make storage a breeze for all of your summer toys! The property is fed by a sandpoint well, and has its own septic system. L. E. D lighting throughout fed from a 200 amp panel. Whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway, fishing cottage, or a cozy place of your own on the river, this Wilmington property packs an incredible amount of character into a small footprint. Panoramic views, direct access to the Kankakee rive, and extensive recent updates make this one worth seeing in person!
