About This Home

As of April 2026

MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED. HIGHEST AND BEST DUE FRIDAY 4/3 at NOON. Opportunity knocks on the Fox River in the desirable Chain O'Lakes! This charming 1 bed, 1 bath riverfront cottage offers 67 feet of water frontage-perfect for boating, fishing, or simply enjoying peaceful waterfront views. The home does need interior updating, making it a great chance to bring your vision to life and build equity in a prime location. Major exterior improvements have already been taken care of, including a new roof (2023), siding (2020), septic system (2019), and water heater (2021). An additional structure on the property provides excellent storage space and has the potential to be converted into a 2-car garage-just add overhead doors to complete the transformation. Please note: property taxes will be lower and do not currently reflect a homeowner's exemption. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway, investment opportunity, or a cozy year-round retreat, this Fox River property is full of potential!
