Recently rehabbed and move-in ready, this 3 bed, 2 bath Wauconda home offers the updates buyers are looking for along with a private setting. The home features new LVP flooring, new carpet, new kitchen countertops, new appliances, several new windows, and a new garage door with opener. The layout offers excellent flexibility for a family, guests, or a home office, while the attached garage provides convenient parking and storage. Outside, the property really stands apart, backing to a community lot with no house directly behind it and no neighboring home on the west side, creating a more open and secluded backyard than you typically find at this price. Conveniently located near Slocum Lake, Wauconda's parks, restaurants, shopping, schools, and recreational amenities, this is a home that combines a fresh, updated interior with a lot setting that's difficult to replicate.
