Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and backing to open green space, this KINGSGATE TWO-STORY offers a level of PRIVACY that's increasingly hard to find, with mature trees lining the rear and a BRICK PAVER PATIO WITH HARDSCAPE positioned for quiet mornings or relaxed evenings outdoors. Situated on .33 ACRE, from the moment you arrive, the ALL-BRICK FRONT and strong architectural presence create a lasting first impression.
Inside, the home unfolds with intention. A TWO-STORY ENTRY welcomes you in, with separate living and dining rooms just off the foyer; spaces that naturally lend themselves to quiet reading or conversation on one side, and gathering around the table with family and friends on the other. Newly refinished AMERICAN CHERRY HARDWOOD FLOORS (2024) run through much of the main level, connecting the kitchen, dining area, and living spaces. The GOURMET KITCHEN is centered around a generous work island, complemented by a LARGE PANTRY, and opens to the family room where a STRIKING TWO-STORY STONE FIREPLACE creates a true focal point and adds to the overall ambiance of the home. Just off the kitchen, a dedicated WINE & COFFEE BAR with additional cabinetry and counter space adds both function and character. A SPACIOUS FIRST-FLOOR OFFICE WITH FRENCH DOORS offers a comfortable work-from-home environment. The LAUNDRY & MUDROOM off the garage create a natural landing zone that supports the rhythm of daily life.
Upstairs, the PRIMARY SUITE offers both space and separation, complete with a LARGE WALK-IN CLOSET and an ensuite bath designed for both daily routine and downtime. The fourth bedroom functions as a true PRINCE/PRINCESS SUITE with its own private bath, ideal for guests or extended stays. Bedrooms two and three are positioned on the opposite side of the home and share a hall bath, creating a layout that provides privacy across the upper level.
The unfinished DAYLIGHT BASEMENT, approximately 1,800 SQUARE FEET and already plumbed for a future bath, offers the opportunity to expand over time in a way that fits your needs.
Updates reflect consistent care and thoughtful investment, including NEW CARPET (2023), HARDWOOD FLOOR REFINISHING & INTERIOR PAINT (2024), a REMODELED POWDER ROOM (2024), and recent improvements such as DISHWASHER (2025), WASHING MACHINE (2025), WATER HEATER (2025), GARAGE DOOR SPRING (2025), and REFRIGERATOR (2026), 3RD BEDROOM PAINT (2026) and DRIVEWAY SEAL COAT (MAY 2026).
GLACIER RIDGE ELEMENTARY is located approximately .5 MILE from the home. Commuting is manageable with the CRYSTAL LAKE METRA STATION (6 MILES) and I-90 (10 MILES) offering access toward Schaumburg and into Chicago. Nearby amenities include NORTHWESTERN MEDICINE MCHENRY HOSPITAL (LEVEL II TRAUMA CENTER), ALGONQUIN COMMONS, and a strong connection to the local lifestyle with the CRYSTAL LAKE PARK DISTRICT, MAIN BEACH CONCERTS, the CRYSTAL LAKE FARMERS MARKET, RIBFEST, SUNSET FEST, and the natural setting of EXNER MARSH.
For a buyer looking to stay rooted in Crystal Lake or make the move from the city into more space without losing convenience, this home offers both.
