Welcome to the serene elegance of 1008 West Dale Ave, a custom ranch nestled in the tranquil enclave of McHenry, IL. This exquisite home, built in 1999, is a testament to craftsmanship and thoughtful design, offering a harmonious blend of comfort and sophistication. As you approach the property, the new wooden front deck greets you, setting the stage for the warmth that awaits inside. The home's facade, a pleasing palette of natural hues, harmonizes with the oversized lot's lush greenery, perched gracefully on a hill at the end of a peaceful dead-end street. Step through the front door and be enveloped by the inviting ambiance of the living room, where a woodburning gas-starter fireplace serves as the heart of the home. The crackle of the firewood and the soft glow of the flames create an atmosphere of cozy intimacy, perfect for chilly evenings. The new wood laminate flooring underfoot adds a touch of rustic charm, while the vaulted ceilings soar above, enhancing the sense of spaciousness. The open floor plan flows seamlessly into the dining area, where a sliding glass door opens to reveal the fenced backyard, a private oasis where nature's symphony provides the soundtrack to your daily life. The large deck off the kitchen invites al fresco dining and moments of quiet reflection amidst the whispering trees. Culinary adventures await in the kitchen, where solid wood cabinets and an island offer ample storage and prep space. The heart of the home, this kitchen is designed for both the seasoned chef and the casual cook, making every meal a celebration. Retreat to the master bedroom, a sanctuary of rest and rejuvenation. The walk-in closet provides generous storage, while the sliding glass door offers a seamless connection to the backyard's verdant beauty. The en-suite master bath is a spa-like retreat, featuring a soaking tub and separate shower, where the day's stresses melt away in the embrace of soothing waters. A second bedroom and bathroom complete the living quarters, ensuring comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. The full unfinished basement, with its high ceilings, egress window, and rough-in plumbing, presents a canvas for your imagination, ready to be transformed into additional living space, a home theater, or a personal gym. Practicality is not forgotten, with a laundry room that simplifies daily chores. There is a two-car detached garage that measures 30 feet deep x 25 feet with great for any extra toys with a service door to the yard. The property's septic and well systems ensure a sustainable lifestyle, while proximity to shopping, restaurants, lakes, highways, and Moraine Hills State Park offers convenience and recreation at your fingertips. This custom ranch is more than a home; it's a retreat from the everyday, a place where memories are made and life is lived to the fullest. Embrace the opportunity to make 1008 West Dale Ave your own and experience the perfect blend of nature's tranquility and modern living.

This end unit townhome backs to a grassed retention area on a quiet cul-de-sac, creating the kind of privacy that's genuinely hard to find in attached housing. You'll appreciate having only one shared wall and the extra natural light that comes with the end position-it makes the 1,640 square feet feel noticeably more open and bright throughout. The association replaced the roof and siding in 2022, which means you're moving into a home where those major items are already handled. Inside, fresh laminate flooring was added throughout the main level within the last three years, giving everything a clean, updated look. The two-story living room is where this home really opens up. The ceiling height creates an airy feel that's impressive when you first walk in, and a loft overlooks the space from above. That loft is one of those flexible areas that works however you need it-home office during the week, reading spot on weekends, or just extra room to spread out. The kitchen has oak cabinets, laminate counters, and a stainless steel dishwasher, with enough space for a table if you prefer eating in the kitchen. What makes it work well is the deck right off the kitchen-ideal for your morning coffee, grilling dinner, or just stepping outside for a minute. There's a half bath on the main floor, which is convenient when you have people over. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and its own bathroom-your retreat at the end of the day. The second bedroom is a good size with a full hallway bath nearby. Carpet runs through the upper level, keeping things comfortable and quiet. The walkout basement is where you get significant extra living space. There's a finished rec room that works well for entertaining, watching movies, or just hanging out. A separate office area gives you dedicated workspace, and there's plenty of storage to keep everything organized. Walk out from here to your private patio overlooking that retention area-it's surprisingly peaceful back there and gives you outdoor space that feels genuinely private. The two-car garage connects directly to the home. The HOA handles exterior maintenance, lawn care, snow removal, and water service, so you're not spending every weekend on yard work. End units in this type of setting don't come up often, especially ones where the retention area creates that natural separation from neighboring properties. The cul-de-sac location adds another layer of quiet, and with the major improvements already completed by the association, you're looking at a home that's truly move-in ready.
