Upstairs, two generously sized secondary bedrooms share a full hallway bath, while the spacious primary suite features its own private full bathroom. Looking for even more space? The unfinished basement is ready for your ideas, whether you envision a recreation room, home theater, fitness area, workshop, additional living space, or a combination of them all. The oversized 20' x 27' attached garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, and more. A 240V electrical panel also provides added flexibility for a future EV charging setup. And then there's the location! Enjoy easy access to shopping and everyday conveniences along Northwest Highway, swimming, hiking, fishing, and outdoor recreation at Three Oaks Recreation Area, plus the restaurants, shops, and entertainment of vibrant downtown Crystal Lake.
