About This Home

As of March 2026

Cute ranch home that sits on a hill out of the floodplain, yet only a block away from the lake! Located near marinas, parks and restaurants. Not far from downtown Fox Lake with the commuter train and movie theater. Newer roof, siding, furnace and water heater. Great starter home, rental, or summer getaway! Sold "As Is"
