About this property

This one-of-a-kind 4-bedroom home offers 2,550 square feet of beautifully updated living space, blending rich history, architectural character, and modern comfort in a truly unforgettable setting. Originally built as a small inn, the residence has been thoughtfully transformed into a warm and inviting home while preserving its unique story - including the original parlor entry, where vintage shuffleboard and checkerboard inlays remain hidden beneath the flooring, a reminder of the home's past. Inside, the home is filled with character and functional living spaces designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The fully remodeled eat-in kitchen overlooks the deck and expansive backyard, creating a bright and welcoming heart of the home for gathering with family and friends. The spacious layout includes four second floor bedrooms. One of the home's most distinctive architectural features is found upstairs: window-lined porches that connect multiple bedrooms, creating spaces perfect for reading, relaxing, or enjoying peaceful views of the surrounding property. Set on an exceptional .67-acre lot, the property feels like a private retreat, surrounded by over two dozen mature trees, and extensive landscaping that create a lush, park-like atmosphere. Outdoor features are equally special, including a cedar privacy fence, large deck views, outdoor shower, firepit area, paved driveway, detached garage, and a 10' x 24' Tuff Shed, making the home as practical as it is picturesque. The list of updates is extensive and reflects true pride of ownership: a full kitchen remodel, beautifully refinished and newly installed hardwood floors, remodeled stairwell with custom handrail, renovated baths, new appliances, crawlspace encapsulation with dehumidifier, updated ductwork, new water heater, central air, attic fan, fireplace stonework with wood burning insert, and much more. Beyond the home itself, the lifestyle here is just as special. Located just one block from spring-fed Druce Lake, the property includes lake access and a small neighborhood beach area at the end of Cottage Street, perfect for summer swimming, kayaking, fishing and paddleboarding. In winter, enjoy ice skating, ice fishing, and snowmobiling. The neighborhood is known for its warmth and charm, with beloved traditions like the annual Fall Fest and Fourth of July celebration, all supported by The Druce Lake Community Association with no mandatory dues. Nature lovers will also appreciate being walking distance to the Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve and other nearby hiking and outdoor recreation destinations, while the location remains incredibly convenient-just minutes from I-94 and US-41, offering easy access to both Chicago and Milwaukee. Located in unincorporated Lake County, the property also benefits from low property taxes, highly regarded District 50 schools, and the rare combination of privacy, community, recreation, and commuter convenience. This is a truly rare opportunity to own a home with history, heart, and lifestyle woven into every detail. Respectfully selling as/is. Not included unless negotiated: 26" Cub Cadet snow blower, hot tub, outdoor racks of firewood, wide-bellied canoe (can seat 6), or wood-burning stove in the shed. Offer must include a rent-back agreement through June 30
