Property Description

For the first time in generations, one of Round Lake's most distinctive lakefront homes is available for its next chapter. Located on a quiet dead-end street, this historic home sits on a rare double lot with a clean, sandy lakefront parcel that the original owner is said to have hand-selected for its shoreline quality. Seller-provided historical research suggests the home's design traces back to the forward-thinking architecture of Chicago's 1933-1934 Century of Progress era, with the home built shortly afterward in the late 1930s. Built with double rows of Chicago brick, the residence reflects craftsmanship, strength, and architectural character that are hard to replicate today. Thoughtfully renovated for modern living, the home blends original presence with updated comfort - creating a lakefront opportunity with history, privacy, views, and long-term lifestyle value! The seller has done major improvements including new windows, electrical, HVAC, roof, plumbing, and renovations intended to bring the home up to today's code standards while preserving its historic character.
