360 Promontory Ln. #F, Wauconda, IL 60084

Bangs Lake is a stones throw from the front door here, and this end-unit townhome in Sunset Ridge is built around the version of life that walk makes possible. Past the red door, the main level opens up fast. Hardwood floors run under a vaulted ceiling near the kitchen pass-through, archways let light move room to room, and a gas fireplace with a tile surround and mantel anchors the living area, wired for surround sound built right into the ceiling. The kitchen holds 42-inch cabinets and brand-new stainless appliances, opening into a sunroom where the sliding glass door frames a covered patio and the shared green space beyond it. Upstairs, the primary suite settles into a two-sink vanity, a jetted soaking tub and a glass block shower that catches the light differently than a standard stall. The basement is where this one surprises people. A finished theater room with tiered, stadium-style seating sits under a ceiling-mounted projector, and a separate room next door holds its own game space, built around a pool table. Attached two-car garage. Lake rights to Bangs Lake included. The lake was the reason to look here. The house is the reason to stay.
