Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee overlooking the water, entertaining on the deck, or gathering around the fire pit on summer evenings, you'll appreciate the space, privacy, and beauty this oversized lot provides. Additional highlights include a finished basement, two driveways that are perfect for a boat or snowmobile and for ample parking, newer furnace and air conditioning, and newer windows in the primary bedroom and living room. Pre-cut wooden blinds in the living room are staying. With lake rights and the boat launch just one block away, you'll have easy access to boating, fishing, kayaking, and all that Crooked Lake has to offer. What truly sets this home apart is the view. Surrounded by mature trees and situated on a generously sized lot, it offers a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful lake vistas, abundant outdoor space, and a sense of retreat while remaining close to everything Lake Villa has to offer.
