Check out this newly rehabbed custom-built 2-story brick home located on one of the most sought-after golf courses in McHenry County, offering prime views of Red Tail Golf Course with a direct overlook of the 6th tee! Adorned with brilliant evening sunsets and cool morning shade, this home has everything you've been missing. Walk in and be amazed by the grand 2-story foyer with brand new hand constructed crystal chandelier, and brand new high-end LVP flooring (throughout literally the entire home) leading to the formal living room, complete with large bay windows, a cozy see through fireplace, and crown molding. The sunroom addition, added by the builder, features wall-to-wall windows and cathedral-like ceilings, offering a perfect zen view of the green. The spacious eat-in kitchen features a breakfast bar island, upgraded 42" white cabinets, granite countertops, newer appliances and a walk-in pantry. The separate eating area opens up to the wraparound deck, perfect for watching golfers tee off and enjoying the view. The large formal dining room comes complete with a tray ceiling, wainscoting, modern crown molding, updated lighting and a butler's bar-perfect for entertaining! The large family room with a fireplace and built-in shelving flows seamlessly into the kitchen. If you enjoy entertaining, you'll love the additional space on the first floor: a private office with a built-in wall unit that could easily be converted into an in-law suite, with an updated full bathroom nearby for added convenience. As you walk up the brand new Red Oak stairs to the second level, the spacious Primary suite features a tray ceiling, dual closets, and an updated bathroom with a separate shower, whirlpool tub, and dual vanities. Three additional large bedrooms complete the upper level with their own large hall bathroom. The finished walk-out basement has it all: space for a media room, a recreation room with a separate billiards area, and potential for a bar area, making it perfect for gatherings. Step outside and enjoy the custom brick paver patio with awning, ideal for grilling and entertaining. This home has been meticulously maintained and updated, including a brand new roof in 2022, newer kitchen appliances, AC (2016), and furnace (2014). This is a must-see to believe-schedule your tour today and experience this stunning home for yourself!
