McHenry, US
Welcome to 9620 Fox Shores, Algonquin - where river access, space to breathe, and a fully rehabbed interior come together like a master plan. This 4-bedroom, 2.1-bath home sits just a few steps from a dead-end cul-de-sac with a private community boat launch and dock, making spontaneous Fox River days dangerously easy. Toss in picnic tables, grills, and a laid-back river community vibe, and suddenly weekends are booked. Inside, the seller went all-in with a full interior rehab in 2024, and it shows. The entry welcomes you with new ceramic tile, while fresh paint throughout gives the entire home a clean, modern feel. The kitchen is an absolute showpiece-completely remodeled with new shaker cabinets in a two-tone design, decorator shelving, and a gigantic center island with breakfast bar seating that can handle everything from weekday chaos to full-on entertaining mode. The layout flows beautifully into the living spaces, including a family room with a cozy gas-log fireplace-perfect for chilly winter nights when boating season is on pause but comfort is not. Even better? Two separate patio spaces give you outdoor options galore: one off the kitchen slider for grilling and gatherings, and another off the family room slider for relaxing, entertaining, or quietly congratulating yourself on this purchase. All bathrooms have been updated with new flooring, vanities, and fixtures, so there's no "we'll fix it later" energy here. The Primary suite has space to spare & grace to match, with TWO walk-in closets and a private bath with dual sink vanity. Want more? How about a private balcony overlooking the Fox River? A picturesque space for morning coffee or evening cocktails watching the sun set. Outside, the home sits on a huge .57-acre lot with mature trees and landscaping-room to spread out, entertain, or simply enjoy the peace. And because this property is in an unincorporated area, you'll enjoy lower real estate taxes, which we all agree is the least flashy but most lovable feature. Why Algonquin? Riverfront charm, a vibrant downtown, great dining, nearby trails, shopping, and quick access to everything without losing that neighborhood feel. Add Fox River access and you're not just buying a house-you're upgrading your lifestyle. If you've been waiting for a move-in-ready home with real space, real updates, and real river access, this one delivers. Just don't wait too long... homes this close to the water don't sit quietly for long. Especially when no flood insurance is required!!!
