Escape to your own private riverfront retreat! Nestled beside a serene park and lush forest preserve, this rare 2.72-acre property offers over 530 feet of breathtaking Kankakee River frontage, complete with a private boat launch perfect for fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the peaceful water views. A long private lane leads to a mostly-brick ranch home that is far more spacious than it appears from the front. The main home features a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a massive Florida/Sunroom with a wood-burning stove and panoramic views of the river. The fully finished basement expands the living space dramatically, offering 3 additional bedrooms, 1 additonal full bath, a rec room, kitchenette, dining area, wine cellar, and a custom bar-ideal for entertaining or multi-generational living. For even more flexibility, there's an attached 1-bedroom, 1-bath (bath recently updated) studio apartment with a full kitchen, living room, and its own private deck overlooking the river. Whether you're seeking related living, guest quarters, or rental potential, this space adds incredible value. A 40 x 60 outbuilding with three overhead doors provides endless storage or workshop potential. With unmatched privacy, natural beauty, and unique living spaces, this one-of-a-kind riverfront property is a must-see for anyone looking to live, relax, and entertain in their own private oasis. This home is zoned agricultural and horses are welcome. New roof in 2023. Home and property being sold as-is.
