Lake Home with Expansive Lake Views and Spectacular Sunrises perfectly located on Third Lake for boating, fishing, swimming, and skating. Big Bonus because it backs up to the Rollins Savanna Forest Preserve with over 5 miles of trails for hiking, biking, and cross-country skiing. Enjoy lake views from the large deck in your front yard, and enjoy preserve views from the large deck in your backyard, and just 1/2 block to the Preserve walking path from this semi-private home. Third Lake is the deepest lake in the county so there's plenty of great fishing, all boats are welcome on the lake, fully-motorized boats as well as kayaks, canoes, etc. Plenty of room for your own boat dock so bring your favorite design! Main level of the house is 858 square feet and has been used as a one bedroom, one bath, the extra room on the main level can easily be used for a den or hobby room. Large basement is ready to be remodeled into living space, this would about double your square footage to 1700 square feet, drain lines are roughed in so a second bathroom can be added downstairs. House and detached 2-car garage have been well maintained, 2016 improvements include new roofs for each, new cement sidewalk, new asphalt pavement driveway, new sump pump, and higher (220v 50amp) electric service to the garage. Driveway seal coat in 2017 and 2018; in 2019 a new water heater and ejector pump. Furnace, maintained annually was installed in 2010. Garden pump house near the lake shore for irrigation. Best of both worlds, two commuter railroad stations to Downtown Chicago within a few miles of the house, and 12 minutes to I-94 or to Gurnee Mills Shopping Mall. Lots of homes on the market, but this one is a lake home!
