Property Description
This is the riverfront home buyers wait for! With a new, improved price, this property offers exceptional value on a rare double lot with a front yard directly on the Fox River-a feature almost no other Algonquin home can offer! With 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and an oversized layout, there's more space than most riverfront homes in the area. The massive driveway (parking for 6+), 3-car garage, and private dock make this an unbeatable setup for boaters, hobbyists, or anyone wanting a true waterfront lifestyle. Inside, the flexible floorplan truly sets this home apart. Two separate staircases lead to two private upper wings-one ideal as an in-law arrangement or secluded primary retreat with its own living space, and the other perfect for kids or guests. A bright pass-through room connects the spaces and works beautifully as a sunroom, lounge, or office with river views. The main level offers a full bedroom and bath, a formal dining room with a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a window-lined bonus room that keeps the riverfront scenery front and center. Step outside to a full-width deck overlooking the water-perfect for morning coffee, evening grilling, and unforgettable sunsets. Located directly on the Fox River with full access to the Chain O'Lakes, you'll enjoy boating, tubing, fishing, and endless summer adventures right from your dock. With its new price, double lot, private dock, and 3-car garage, this home stands out as one of he best riverfront opportunities in Algonquin! This is the perfect opportunity to scoop up a waterfront home before the competitive spring market arrives!
