An exceptional opportunity awaits in this thoughtfully maintained, truly one-of-a-kind home offering the space, setting, and lifestyle today's buyers are searching for. Lovingly cared for by a long-time owner, this impressive residence offers over 3,700 square feet of living space with 5 bedrooms - plus the flexibility for a 6th (was used as a private office), and 3.5 baths, delivering outstanding versatility for living, working, and entertaining! Coveted first-floor laundry adds everyday convenience, while the huge, finished basement provides endless possibilities for recreation, fitness, hobbies, or guest accommodations. Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac within a close-knit community, this home feeds into the highly desirable schools of District 23 and John Hersey High School, making the location just as exceptional as the home itself. Residents also enjoy access to the outstanding amenities of the Arlington Heights Park District, known for its beautiful parks, pools, recreation facilities, and year-round programming. The fully fenced backyard feels like a private retreat, complete with a heated in-ground pool featuring a new liner - perfect for summer gatherings and relaxing weekends at home. A brick paver driveway and attached two-car garage enhance both curb appeal and everyday functionality. What truly sets this property apart is its rare setting backing directly to Lake Arlington, offering resort-style living all year long. Step outside to enjoy scenic walking and biking paths, kayaking, fishing, sailing lessons, and even a nearby ice cream shop just moments from your door. Adding to the home's incredible potential is a former in-home hair salon with existing plumbing - ideal for conversion into an expansive mudroom, upgraded laundry room, or custom bonus space tailored to your needs. With a newer roof, expansive living areas, and an unmatched lakeside lifestyle, this well-maintained home presents a rare opportunity to create lasting memories in a setting that truly feels like a year-round getaway.
