About This Home

As of June 2026

Experience the pinnacle of waterfront living in this adorable A-frame retreat, perfectly positioned on a prime channel on the Upper Fox River and the legendary Chain O' Lakes. No Flood insurance required which makes it even more appealing. This McHenry Shores home is where summer memories are made, featuring a private pier equipped with an electric Tri toon boat lift, two jet ski lifts for instant access to sun-drenched days on the water. The backyard is a true outdoor paradise designed for high-end entertaining, boasting a massive brick paver patio, a built-in fire pit for starlit nights, a relaxing hot tub, and dedicated storage for all your water toys. Inside, the seamless indoor-outdoor flow begins with soaring floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors that flood the home with natural light and offer serene views of the mature landscape. Elegant hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, leading you from the living room's cozy gas fireplace to a beautifully renovated kitchen featuring granite countertops and a large peninsula perfect for hosting. After a day on the boat, retreat to the massive three-season room to take in the breeze, or head upstairs to the primary suite sanctuary, complete with a lofted sitting area, ensuite bathroom and a private balcony overlooking the water. With two additional main floor bedrooms and full bath, this home offers the perfect blend of cozy charm and serious lake life living. Your best summer yet starts here! Tritons boat lift does not come with the house.
