About this home
Wake up every morning to a breathtaking lake view and end your evenings with glowing sunsets dancing across the water. Located on Mineola Bay, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers direct access to the entire Chain O' Lakes through neighboring Fox Lake and Nippersink Lake - putting miles of open water right at your fingertips. This home isn't just refreshed - it's been thoughtfully improved inside and out, ready for its next lucky owner. Step inside to discover stylish laminate flooring and neutral, soothing colors that create a warm, inviting feel throughout. The updated kitchen shines with refreshed cabinetry and modern appliances, offering the perfect space to gather, entertain, and refuel after long days on the water. Every detail blends comfort with functionality and style. Major mechanical updates? Already handled. A newer A/C and furnace (April 2024) keep you comfortable year-round - whether you're cooling off after a hot July boat ride or cozying up on a crisp fall evening. The exterior has also been beautifully improved with newer siding, roof, and gutters (June 2024), adding both curb appeal and long-term value. The attached garage provides practical storage for lake toys, fishing gear, coolers, paddleboards - or whatever lake life requires! And with summer right around the corner... it's time to pull that boat out of storage, stock the cooler, and get ready for spontaneous sunset cruises. From Mineola Bay, cruise effortlessly into Fox Lake, Nippersink Lake, and beyond - enjoying tubing, fishing, waterfront dining, sandbars, and fireworks reflecting off the water. This is true chain access living! Perfectly located less than one mile from public transportation (Metra) and all of the fantastic shopping, dining, charm of downtown Fox Lake and even a 13 screen Movie Theater. Why Fox Lake? Being part of life on the Chain O' Lakes means everyday feels like a getaway. You get miles of interconnected waterways for boating, fishing, tubing, and sunset cruises all summer long! Waterfront dining, neighborhood marinas, seasonal festivals, and that laid-back lake vibe make it easy to feel like you're on vacation - while still having easy access to the Metra, eclectic shopping, all sorts of dining, and major roadways. It's small-town charm with big-time lake life energy. This isn't just a home - it's a lifestyle. Don't sit back wondering "why didn't we take it?" Schedule your showing and step into lake life before someone else does....
