Property Description
Welcome to 2036 Valley Lo Lane, a rare opportunity to own a true lakefront home on the shores of Valley Lo Lake, where breathtaking views, an exceptional setting, and unlimited potential come together in one remarkable offering. Situated on a coveted stretch of the private 28-acre lake, this original developer's home offers an unparalleled lifestyle in one of Glenview's most sought-after communities. Featuring 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, with four bedrooms on the upper level and one bedroom in the lower level, this spacious residence provides the perfect foundation to create your dream waterfront retreat. The home's most captivating feature is its stunning lake views, showcased from the expansive wraparound rear porch, private primary suite balcony, and numerous windows throughout the home. The main level offers generous living spaces, including a large family room, formal living room, and an opportunity to expand and reimagine the kitchen to suit today's lifestyle. A full bathroom with shower and an oversized mudroom with laundry on the main level provide the perfect setup for lake living, offering easy access from the backyard after a day on the water. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, complete with a beautifully remodeled bathroom (2020) and a private balcony overlooking the lake. The full basement expands the living space even further, featuring a recreation area, an additional bedroom, abundant storage, and a unique temperature-controlled wine cellar. Outside, enjoy evenings around the fire pit, take in the serene waterfront setting, or launch a paddle board right from your backyard. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a new roof (2024), updated electrical service, windows and sliding glass doors replaced (2020), 18 solar panels (2026), skylights (2024), and newer HVAC systems (2019). The entire home has also been freshly painted. The oversized 3-car garage features epoxy flooring and abundant storage space. While the home offers an incredible opportunity for modernization, the fundamentals are outstanding, making it the perfect canvas for your vision. Spend summers swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, or simply enjoying the tranquility of lakefront living. The Valley Lo Club, located just across the lake, offers additional recreation and social opportunities for those who choose to join. Opportunities to own true lakefront property in Glenview are exceptionally rare. Combined with award-winning schools, a central location near shopping, dining, parks, and transportation, this is a one-of-a-kind offering where the setting alone is simply priceless. Welcome Home!
