Weekend lake getaway or forever family home-this well kept 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom raised ranch has been meticulously cared for and comes with access to all of the amenities available at Apple Canyon Lake. Conveniently located on the southwest side of Apple Canyon, this home offers over 2,220 square feet of living space and falls within the highly desired Scales Mound School District. An inviting appeal begins as soon as you pull onto the asphalt driveway and approach the front porch with composite decking. The welcoming feel carries through to the inside when you step through the front door into an open living space that flows right into a combined kitchen and dining space that is highlighted by custom Bader cabinetry made locally in Scales Mound, IL. All three bedrooms and two bathrooms are located on the main floor, including the spacious master with its own private bath. Downstairs is plenty of additional living space including a large family room with a wood burning fireplace, a large laundry room, another full bath, and an office that could potentially be used as additional sleeping space as well. In addition to the two car attached garage is a 16 X 12 outdoor shed sure to store all of the lake necessities and lawn tools. Off the dining room is a large deck over looking a wooded backdrop beyond the backyard and offering a stairway down towards a newly installed fire pit perfect for those summer night bonfires at the lake. High speed fiber internet services the home providing the ability to work from home while benefitting from a much more affordable cost of living than in the big city. Hop onto Apple Canyon Lake’s trail system just down the street which can be used to access all of the lake’s amenities including Nixon Beach which could be accessed within minutes from this home by golf cart or UTV. Come see for yourself everything this home and the Apple Canyon Lake community has to offer! Seller owns adjacent lot to the east and would offer that to purchase as well, but not a requirement to purchase the house. Square footage is a sum of main floor square footage sourced from Jo Daviess County Assessor’s office and lower level finished space that is estimated by listing agent-Buyer to verify. Apple Canyon Lake covenants and restrictions and HOA fees apply.
