Step inside and enjoy a sun-filled, open layout with white oak flooring, a calm neutral palette, and an easy flow ideal for both daily living and entertaining. The brand-new kitchen features quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, LED lighting, and Whirlpool stainless steel appliances-including a gas range with air fry and fingerprint-resistant dishwasher. Three main-floor bedrooms, each with ceiling fans, provide comfort and flexibility. The full hall bath offers a spa-like atmosphere with a tub/shower combo, and open shelving. The finished lower level expands your living space with a half bath, large entertainment area, laundry, and a versatile bonus room-perfect for an office, gym, or playroom. Major improvements in 2025 include: attic insulation R49, new roof, new gutters, new asphalt driveway, new A/C, two new furnaces, new water heater, new water softener, new well tank, new ejector pump, new sump pump, and re-piped plumbing and electrical throughout. The house boasts new ceiling fans in each bedroom, electronic key pad at front door and usb outlets in each room. Custom kitchen cabinets and pantry with ample storage space including a new range hood, sink and faucet, trash pullout, spice pull out and bakeware pull out. The connection into city sewer makes this home ready for additions. The kitchen boasts a 42" counter-depth refrigerator. Although not new the custom panels create a cohesive kitchen. Outside, enjoy nearly an acre for gardening, pets, or outdoor entertaining, plus a 1200 sq foot detached garage with 220 power for your hobbies and storage needs. Located in unincorporated Gurnee, this property combines lower taxes, privacy, and a location close to shopping, dining. See it and fall in love with your new home.
