Property Description
A Belvidere Gem with Exceptional Outdoor Living! This one-of-a-kind home features four bedrooms, two baths, a cozy living room, and a dining room that doubles as a poolside family room with sliding doors for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. Step outside to the backyard oasis: a sparkling inground pool with hot tub and slide anchors the space, surrounded by a large fenced-in area providing privacy and security for family, pets, and gatherings. The yard is enclosed with a stunning combination of a new 7-foot corrugated steel privacy fence and 300 linear feet of cedar fencing, and lined with 30 Green Emerald Arborvitaes (currently 6 ft tall, growing ~2 ft per year) that will mature into a lush, evergreen privacy wall. Recent 2025 updates include a new oversized concrete driveway with four parking spaces, new carpeting in both upstairs bedrooms, fresh front and back landscaping, and the new privacy fence that encloses approximately two-thirds of the yard-perfect for safety, seclusion, and style. Located near Belvidere River Park and Downtown Belvidere, this home is ideal for gatherings, relaxing evenings, and enjoying the outdoors in a highly desirable location.
