159 Forest AvenueFox Lake, IL 60020

Description

Attention investors, rehabbers, and buyers with vision! Opportunity awaits in Fox Lake, just down the street from Nippersink Lake. This spacious home features 2 bedrooms and a full bath on the main level, plus a third bedroom and loft upstairs. Generous room sizes, a partial basement, detached 2-car garage, and large lot offer plenty of possibilities. Repairs are needed, and the plumbing does not currently hold water pressure. Priced to reflect its current condition, the property is being offered as-is, with the survey to be the buyer's responsibility. Enjoy all the recreation the Chain O' Lakes area is known for, including boating, fishing, swimming, and ice fishing. Nearby Lakefront Park offers a public beach, splash pad, and seasonal concerts, while shopping, dining, and the Metra station are just minutes away. A great opportunity to renovate, add value, and create something special!
