Property Description
Beautifully maintained home in desirable Legend Lakes of McHenry-where ponds, parks, sidewalks, and a true neighborhood feel create the perfect setting for everyday living. From the quaint front porch practically begging for rocking chairs to the breathtaking pond views out back, this home is filled with warmth, space, and thoughtful updates throughout. The main level offers exceptional functionality with formal living and dining rooms, plus a spacious kitchen designed for entertaining featuring wood cabinetry, Corian countertops, center island, table space, and buffet-style serving area. Wood flooring flows throughout much of the main level, while the cozy family room with gas fireplace creates the perfect gathering space. A versatile flex room makes an ideal playroom, office, or homeschool area. Remodeled powder room and convenient main-level laundry complete the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms plus a loft for additional living space. Brand new carpet throughout the second level adds a fresh feel. The spacious primary suite features dual walk-in closets, a large ensuite bath with soaking tub, separate shower, private water closet, and a charming balcony-perfect for morning coffee to watch the sunrise. The unfinished walkout basement offers incredible potential for future living space, storage, home gym, or recreation area with direct access to the backyard and pond views. The fenced backyard is truly a standout with a newer Trex deck, lush landscaping, and stunning water views that make this outdoor space feel like a private retreat. The visiting bald eagle the sellers have enjoyed over the years is just the icing on the cake. Extensively updated for peace of mind: roof (2022), Trex deck (2021), furnace (2026), water heater (2025), exterior paint (2023), carpet (2026), refreshed main-level interior paint (2026), and washer/dryer (2025). A rare opportunity to enjoy space, scenery, and community all in one-this is the kind of home you'll love coming back to every day.
