CRYSTAL LAKE ESCAPE... Discover a home where low property taxes and an unbeatable location come together to create a truly unique opportunity. Perfectly positioned just steps from Crystal Lake and minutes from the Virginia Street corridor-with its shops, dining, and everyday conveniences-this inviting residence feels like a year-round getaway at a surprisingly affordable price. Inside, a bright, open floor plan welcomes you with abundant natural light. The modern kitchen features stainless steel appliances and generous cabinet space, while the lofted primary suite and updated bathrooms offer a private, spa-like retreat. Step outside into your own backyard sanctuary complete with a heated in-ground pool, expansive deck, hot tub, and multiple spaces for lounging or entertaining. A storage shed provides room for seasonal items, and while there is NO GARAGE currently, the property offers ample space to construct one to your specifications. Please be aware this home has a crawl space only-NO BASEMENT. These details, however, are far outweighed by the value of the property, its low taxes, and the unbeatable proximity to Crystal Lake. Families will appreciate access to award-winning Crystal Lake schools, including District 47 elementary schools recognized for their excellence in Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports (PBIS), and Crystal Lake South High School, celebrated for its outstanding theatre program and athletic achievements. With downtown Crystal Lake, the Metra station, Pace Bus 550, Veteran Acres Park, Main Beach, and the historic Dole Mansion all just minutes away, this home offers not just a place to live, but a lifestyle of convenience, recreation, and retreat. Don't miss your chance to make this Crystal Lake escape your own.
