The laundry room with utility sink offers direct access to the 3-car garage. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite boasts a large walk-in closet and private bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower, while three additional generously sized bedrooms offer excellent closet space. The finished basement provides a huge recreation room, half bath, and ample storage. Additional updates include dual HVAC systems, NEW roof and gutters (2020), newer water heater (3 years), and newer main-level carpeting. Gazebos, outdoor furniture, deck boxes, and bedroom TVs will stay with the home. Enjoy an unbeatable location just minutes from parks, playgrounds, 30+ miles of the Millennium Trail, Lakewood Forest Preserve, Dog Park, Bangs Lake, and charming downtown Wauconda with its restaurants, shopping, festivals, and lakefront activities.
