Two self-contained units, Fox River views across the street, and a rooftop deck-814 North River Road offers a combination that's genuinely difficult to find in this market. The property includes 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths across two distinct living levels. The main level unit has a living room, formal dining room, full kitchen, two bedrooms, and two full baths-a complete, comfortable space with convenient single-level accessibility. The upper level unit offers two bedrooms, a full bath, and its own kitchen area, functioning as a fully independent living space with real privacy from the unit below. The 16x12 rooftop deck is the property's crown jewel-an elevated outdoor retreat with scenic Fox River views that sets this two-unit apart from anything comparable in the area. A partial unfinished basement provides solid storage. The detached two-car garage with gravel drive adds ample parking. Mature trees enhance the lot's peaceful, private character. The home is move-in ready and priced to give the next owner room to update and personalize over time-cosmetic improvements here have a clear path to meaningful equity. Located in unincorporated McHenry across from the Fox River, this is a rare two-unit opportunity with the views and outdoor space to match.
