This brick ranch delivers the full riverlife experience, set along the beautiful Kankakee River with access to a neighborhood boat launch and sweeping water views from multiple rooms. An enclosed, airconditioned sunroom with a builtin grill opens to a massive backyard and a great deck perfect for summer gatherings, while an additional, rear lot facing garage offers ideal space for a boat, trailer, or lawn equipment. Inside, a huge familyroom addition, a mudroom, and an ergonomic laundry room add everyday convenience. The living room shines with walls of windows overlooking the river and boasts an enormous stone fireplace. The updated kitchen blends modern finishes, granite counters, and stainless appliances with charming midcentury such as the brick wall with built in oven, and louvred access doors. Every bedroom includes a walkin closet, with the primary suite offering its own ensuite bath. With hardwood flooring throughout most of the home and multiple spaces designed for entertaining, this property is a rare blend of comfort, character, and unbeatable riverfront living.
