The yard and 3-tier deck is viewable through the 6' patio door, leading to drinks and meals enjoyed on the deck in natural settings and landscape. The countertop peninsula invites visitors to spend time while working in the kitchen. or entertaining, or enjoying a morning cup, there is a large, sprawling deck to the back of the house, which extends to the large patio on the wooded side of the house and family room. The family room features a wood burning fireplace and two six foot patio doors for enjoying nature, in comfort, regardless of season. The city of McHenry offers the fanfare of the Riverwalk, with restaurants and businesses that have electrified and solidified the excitement for future generations. Nightlife has come to the community creating entertainment as a staple of our community. The future of this home is secured both in home equity and community, and will bring peace and comfort to the new occupants. Not only due to the base mechanicals and items being replaced, remodeled and freshened up, but due largely to the quality of the people who owned this home and the quality of people in the neighborhood.
