This little cottage is located close to town and backs to the Tamarack bog. Floorplan offers several options thanks to a family room and living room plus 2 bedrooms and a den. At one time the den was the original kitchen and was open into the living room; the new owners could re-work this space to make an open great room. There is a partial basement that is finished and provides exterior access to the serene back yard. The house needs some interior enhancements, but it is clean and well maintained. Plus, the roof is newer (2020) the well is brand new (2024), the bathroom was updated, and there is a very nice maintenance free deck (2023). Hardwood floors throughout. No garage but there is plenty of parking. There is also a 26x14 outbuilding in the back yard (no car access) and is currently outfitted as a wood working shop. The location is great and is an easy stroll to downtown Wauconda, but is actually considered unincorporated Lake County. This is an estate sale for a long time family that raised 4 children in this home, so despite its cozy size, it offers great warmth and charm. Sold as-is.
