Property Description
Welcome to the Lake Life - 224 E Grand Avenue, Fox Lake This split-level sits a short walk from the water and downtown Fox Lake, close to the marinas, boat launches, restaurants, and the Fox Lake Metra stop if you need an easy ride into the city. Built in 1991 and updated over the years, the main level opens up from the foyer into a living room, dining room, and kitchen with stainless steel appliances - good light, good flow, easy to cook in. The primary bedroom is at the back of this floor with vaulted ceilings and real closet space, plus a second bedroom and the shared bath. Downstairs is built for hanging out: a big family room and rec area including a pool table, a wood-burning fireplace for winter nights, two more bedrooms, a full bath, and a utility room set up for your washer and dryer. The whole home was just freshly painted, carpets were professionally steam cleaned, and the ductwork was cleaned throughout - move-in ready. Outside there's a wraparound deck running the length of the side and back of the house - plenty of room for a grill, a table, whatever you want out there. Detached 2-car garage. Four bedrooms, two full baths, and you're within walking distance of the lake, downtown, and the train.
