Rare opportunity to own 11.35 acres — the largest lot in the area — in unincorporated Lake County, IL. This rural single-family property combines scale, privacy, and flexibility, surrounded by mature trees and adjacent to a nature preserve, with no homes in the immediate sightline.
The existing home is a 3 bed / 1 bath, 1,776 sqft single-family structure that needs a complete remodel, making this an ideal candidate for a fix-and-flip, custom rebuild, land-banking play, or buy-and-hold rental. With an ARV of $400,000+ and estimated rehab of $110,000, there's substantial upside for the right buyer.
