The expansive backyard is a private retreat with mature trees, a tall privacy fence, and a beautiful paver patio-perfect for relaxing evenings, weekend gatherings, or outdoor entertaining. Inside, hardwood floors extend throughout the first floor, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. A spacious front living room, currently used as the owners' dining room, flows seamlessly into the formal dining area, where large windows provide peaceful views of the backyard. The comfortable eat-in kitchen is designed with both function and everyday living in mind, offering abundant counter space, ample cabinetry, a pantry, and plenty of room for a kitchen table.

It's the perfect place to unwind with family and friends throughout the year. The first floor also includes a convenient laundry/mudroom that serves as an ideal drop zone when entering from the attached garage, a powder room, and a versatile fourth bedroom that can easily function as a private home office, guest room, or flex space. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized secondary bedrooms that share a full hallway bath, along with a spacious primary suite complete with its own private full bathroom. The unfinished basement offers endless possibilities, providing a blank canvas to create the recreation room, home theater, fitness area, workshop, or additional living space you've always envisioned. The expansive 20'x27' attached garage has plenty of room for storage and also features 240v breaker box if you would like to install an EV charging station. Location is another outstanding feature of this home. Enjoy convenient access to shopping along Northwest Highway, outdoor recreation at Three Oaks Recreation Area with its swimming, hiking, and fishing opportunities, dining and entertainment in vibrant downtown Crystal Lake, and easy commuting via the Pingree Road Metra station with service to downtown Chicago.
