Property Description

Rare 2.5-Acre Opportunity in Unincorporated Warren Township! Nestled among beautiful, mature trees and surrounded by newer residential communities, this unique property offers privacy, space, and endless possibilities. The solid, custom-built ranch offers approximately 2,500 square feet of living space and has been lovingly maintained. The home is move-in ready today, with excellent potential for future updates and personalization. Featuring 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full baths, a large eat-in kitchen, separate dining/family room, and an expansive living room with a beautiful stone fireplace, the home offers generous room sizes and quality construction. The oversized main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bath. An unfinished basement with crawl space, abundant closet and storage space, and an oversized 2-car garage provide plenty of additional utility. Built in 1971, the home provides a solid foundation for customization while retaining its original craftsmanship and character. Outside, approximately 2.5 wooded acres offer tremendous flexibility-with room for gardens, recreational activities, a workshop, storage building, RV, boat, or other recreational equipment. Whether you're looking for a private estate, a spacious property to make your own, or an investor or builder exploring future redevelopment possibilities, this property deserves a closer look. City water, septic, and utilities are already in place, adding significant value and convenience. Located on the corner of Highfield Drive West at the entrance to the desirable Shires of Cambridge subdivision, the property combines privacy, accessibility, and outstanding long-term potential. Large parcels like this are increasingly rare in the Gurnee area, making this an exceptional opportunity for homeowners, hobbyists, contractors, or developers alike. Any redevelopment or subdivision potential is subject to buyer due diligence and all applicable governmental approvals.
