1st Floor Bedroom and Full Bath! Let the forest preserve set the scene for your next chapter at 526 Middlebury in Lake Villa. Backing to protected natural surroundings, this immaculate, well-maintained home pairs scenic views with soaring ceilings and generously sized rooms across 2,755 square feet. Four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one half bathrooms offer space for everyday living, gathering, and relaxing. Outside, the third acre property features a large yard, an irrigation system, and a patio where morning coffee or an evening outdoors comes with a beautiful natural backdrop. Updates include a roof new in 2017, HVAC new in 2021, and a driveway new in 2021. A prime Lake Villa location and desirable school district further complement the home's appeal. Beyond your backyard, discover a community where outdoor recreation and small-town charm shape daily life. Nearby Cedar Lake, Deep Lake, and Sand Lake offer opportunities for boating, fishing, kayaking, and quiet time by the water, while proximity to the Chain O' Lakes opens the door to exploring Illinois' largest recreational waterway. Lake County Forest Preserves provide hundreds of acres of prairie and woodland landscapes, with trails for hiking, biking, and birdwatching, including connections throughout the region to the expansive Millennium Trail. Local parks, athletic fields, playgrounds, and open green spaces add even more ways to enjoy the outdoors. Historic downtown Lake Villa brings together locally owned restaurants, small businesses, and community gathering places, with seasonal celebrations and local events adding to the village's welcoming character. When work or travel calls, the Lake Villa Metra station's North Central Service provides commuter rail access toward Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Lake Villa also offers easy access to Naval Station Great Lakes, O'Hare International Airport, Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport, and downtown Chicago. Here, spacious living and a forest preserve backdrop meet the lakes, trails, and community connections that make Lake Villa a distinctive place to call home.
