Live every day like you're on vacation! Original owners are selling their quality brick home on 1.18 acres backing to the Des Plaines River. (High & dry - not in a flood plain). A serene haven in the heart of Gurnee. So peaceful yet minutes to absolutely everything. Sit in the screened-in porch drinking your coffee while watching the sun rise over the river and listening to the birds. A meditative retreat like none other. Launch your canoe or kayak directly from your backyard! Hardwood floors throughout, plaster walls, heated floors in the fully finished walkout basement with fireplace (possible in-law situation with living room, bedroom, full bathroom, 2nd kitchen, and separate entrance). 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2+ car attached garage. Be sure to check out the 19x19 work shop / storage located under the garage. Immediate closing is possible. Schedule your appointment today.
