Property Description
Welcome to 559 Kimball Ave - A Hidden Gem in Wauconda! This beautifully cared-for home is tucked away in a truly special location, offering peace, privacy, and a front-row seat to nature's best. Enjoy tranquil mornings and unforgettable evenings on not one, but two spacious decks overlooking a serene backyard oasis. The upper deck features a custom-built tiki bar, perfect for entertaining, while the lower deck provides the ideal space for summer fun, gatherings, or simply relaxing under the stars. Inside, the living room boasts classic charm with a traditional brick fireplace and a view that brings the outdoors in. The family room impresses with its vaulted ceilings, skylights, and an abundance of natural light. A new roof, installed within the last two years, adds peace of mind for years to come. This home is filled with smart upgrades including a 220 electrical panel, gas line, new carpet, kitchen flooring, and HVAC system - all updated in the last two years. A riding mower and flatscreen TV are included with the sale, adding even more value. Situated on a generously sized lot, there's room to play, garden, or entertain to your heart's content. The full unfinished basement offers endless potential with space for a future full bath and abundant storage. Located in an award-winning school district, this property is within walking distance to vibrant downtown Wauconda, full of charming restaurants and shops. Plus, beach rights are included for the subdivision, and best of all - it's not in a flood plain. And the cherry on top? Quite literally - a one-of-a-kind cherry blossom tree, unlike any other in the world, blooms right in your own backyard. It's not just a home, it's a lifestyle.
