Welcome to this charming 3-bedroom, 1.1-bath home, perfectly positioned along the scenic Fox River just below the Algonquin Dam-where waterfront living meets everyday convenience. Imagine stepping into a lifestyle where mornings begin with coffee on the screened-in porch or back deck, and evenings end by the campfire, watching the river flow as boats drift by. This move-in-ready home is a blend of timeless character and modern updates, featuring a new roof (2023), hot water heater (2022), and updated kitchen appliances-including oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator (2020), and freshly repainted (2025). The kitchen has been newly refreshed with painted cabinets and updated countertops, creating a clean, inviting space that opens beautifully to the rest of the home. Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors throughout most of the first floor, soaring ceilings, and a cozy fireplace framed by original woodwork that adds warmth and charm. Love the outdoors? You'll appreciate the peaceful koi pond, abundant fishing right off your backyard (yes, even 15+ lb catfish under the dam!), and the ability to launch your kayak, canoe, or boat steps from your door. The expansive 4-car heated garage with 11-ft ceilings offers space for your vehicles, workshop, or storing all your river toys. Just minutes from vibrant downtown Algonquin, you're close to a variety of fantastic restaurants, bars, and coffee shops, not to mention local parks and seasonal events like Founders' Days, complete with live music and fireworks. Whether you're a weekend adventurer or looking for a full-time river retreat, this home offers a unique lifestyle-tranquil, connected, and filled with possibility.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
