Outdoor lovers retreat on a double lot with another recreational lot ON the Fox River (yes, this is 3 PIN #s with one on the river that the owners have been told is not buildable - buyer to do your own due diligence). Escape the hustle and embrace the unincorporated lifestyle in this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home nestled on a rare double lot just steps from the scenic Fox River. Perfect for nature enthusiasts, weekend warriors, or anyone craving a bit more freedom, this cozy retreat offers the best of both worlds-quiet, wooded surroundings with easy access to everything you need. Inside, you'll find a warm, welcoming layout with thoughtful updates and natural light throughout. Step outside and the adventure really begins: two spacious lots provide endless opportunities for gardening, outdoor entertaining, or even building out your dream setup. The oversized detached garage is ideal for storing your boat, kayaks, bikes, or setting up a workshop. Enjoy river access from your private lot (just down the block), miles of local hiking trails, and the freedom that comes with no HOA and unincorporated living. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway, a downsized home base, or a place to truly make your own-this is the one. Only minutes to the Metra, Cary schools, golf courses.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
