About This Home

As of June 2026

Owning a home on the water is usually a luxury reserved for a different price point, but this property on the Fox River changes that narrative. Sitting on a full acre of land, this three-bedroom, two-bath ranch offers a straightforward and relaxed way to live the riverfront lifestyle. The house itself is designed for easy, single-story living, keeping the focus exactly where it should be: the outdoors. The backyard is the true heart of the home. A large deck extends from the back of the house, providing a wide-open view of the lawn as it rolls down toward the water. Adjacent to the river, find a unique screened-in outbuilding tucked right along the bank. It's the kind of space that's hard to find-perfect for watching the water or hosting friends without worrying about the elements. When you're ready to get on the water, a set of concrete steps leads you right down to the river's edge, making it easy to launch a kayak, stand up paddle board, or spend an afternoon fishing. Whether you're looking for a peaceful full-time residence or a simple weekend getaway, this property offers a rare chance to claim your own piece of the Fox River.
