This extraordinary hidden lake is an amazing find and will take your breath away. Impress your family and friends on this secluded 14.5-acre private lake with 32 homes located just 15 miles from downtown Chicago and just minutes to O'Hare, Metra, top rated schools and expressways.

The lot is one of the largest 120 x 250 with a significant amount of land out of the water allowing for an impressively large, picturesque yard. Enjoy the morning sunrise while sipping your coffee and cool evenings with the sun glistening off the water. This secluded setting is accessible only by a "newly paved" private driveway. The home has over 5,000 square feet of living space with a walkout lower level on lake side, a 3-car attached garage, a wraparound balcony across the entire back of the home overlooking the yard and offering remarkable lake views. How about relaxing on your own private beach or jumping in the cool water off your personal pier? Enjoy your lake year-round swimming, boating, fishing and ice skating. First time this home is being offered in decades. Architectural shingle roof looks great and is approximately 13 years new. Newer zoned furnaces and central air units. Check recent sales on the lake: 240 N. Dee sold (off market) in March 2022 for $2.1M. 208 N. Dee Rd sold $1M for land only. If you want something special that cannot be duplicated, then come and see this beautiful home and this amazing lake. Once per year only association dues of $600.
