At the top of a hill overlooking the best spot on the Fox River just above the dam in the no wake zone, sits this sophisticated yet incredibly welcoming home. Custom built, completed in 2021 sparing no attention to detail this stunning house offers elegance and style from the inside out. The slated volume ceiling starts in the outside deck living space of over 1000 square feet and rolls right inside from every angle of the deck to the inside rooms that offer spectacular waterfront views, and makes the transition from outside in, seamless. The coffered ceiling with hand stained millwork is a work of art. State of the art kitchen with massive island, high end gun metal appliances, counter and large table space area opens to a cozy deck area with a water feature facing south so the temperature is perfect almost year round. The wall of windows from the sitting areas on the west side offers the best views of the sunset. A full suite on the first floor with its own 3 season room with golf course windows and stone fireplace makes the perfect private guest suite or could be a second master suite. The beautiful wide staircase leads to the second floor with 2 auxiliary bedrooms, an unfinished space that could be another bedroom, office, art studio or anything you can imagine and a second floor laundry room, all before you hit the piece de resistance master suite. Entering through the private hall you're drawn to the view of the river from the wall of sliders. The spacious bathroom with a tall walk-in shower, tub with one side of the in wall fireplace and across the hall the gigantic 2 story, yes I said 2 story, closet offering plenty of room for clothes, shoes accessories and even an office space with a window cutout so you can't miss the view. The bedroom itself with a fireplace, wall of sliders that opens to the best view of the river with its wrap-around deck is a show stopper. If the inside isn't enough to take your breath away, the outside space is sure to do it, the view alone with the tranquil sounds of the river and wildlife but then the Hollywood style concrete inground pool with its privacy wall and diving board allows you to swim laps or host a fabulous outdoor party. As the sun sets you can have your guest sit around the fire pit toasting marshmallows and enjoying the rest of this almost 1 acre lot. The newly built pier on the river with double bench deck for your guests as you all hop on your pontoon or 2, yes it's long enough to fit 2. Enjoy the view of your terraced landscape leading back to the house and is adjacent to the private beach area which runs into the McHenry Dam Park for fishing or fun. All this in a paradise close to Moraine Hills State Park with wildlife, biking, and trails galore. Minutes from Downtown McHenry offering restaurants, shopping and the developing Riverwalk with quaint cottage like shops and even live music in the summer. One of the area's last Drive-in movie theaters, a popular music venue and easy access to the northern east, west corridor that takes you almost to Lake Michigan or a quick trip to Wisconsin awaits you for year round or summer living. Take your pick, you won't be disappointed. 4 bedrooms, 3 full and 1 half bath, and an oversized 4 car garage to store your own boat, jet ski, golf cart or anything else you need. This beautiful home will amaze you.
