About This Home

As of August 2022

Charming 2 BR ranch w/HUGE kitchen overlooking a private, extra deep, fully fenced backyard with many perennials, garden space, & sunny Southern exposure. Oversized shed/outbuilding, as well as a newer built greenhouse, perfect for the gardener or outdoors person (both structures are well built and HUGE). Lake rights to beautiful Druce Lake located just a 1/2 block down the street! Lots of updates in 2005, including new windows, furnace, electrical, most plumbing, kitchen & bath remodel and hardwood floors! This home feels like a vacation home out in the country, and yet is very close to shopping, restaurants, and the expressway. Low unincorporated real estate taxes! Watch spectacular lake sunsets every night from your yard! Gurnee Woodland and Warren High school! It appears to have room to build a garage, but your own due diligence is recommended. What a great buy for such an adorable property!
