Description

MOTIVATED SELLERS OFFERING BEST VALUE IN SYCAMORE!! Build your dream home on this exceptional custom homesite in the desirable Merry Oaks Subdivision of Sycamore. Lot #108 offers nearly half an acre in an established community surrounded by beautiful natural amenities, including mature trees, scenic walking and biking paths, peaceful water features and park-like open spaces. Merry Oaks offers a truly distinctive setting with over two miles of walking and biking paths winding through woods, ponds and across charming footbridges over the community's meandering creek, with connections to neighboring communities and nature paths. The property features several picturesque bodies of water, including a larger pond home to fish and wildlife, a smaller pond tucked among the woods, and a meandering creek that adds to the area's peaceful, natural character. Over six acres of common ground, along with protected woodlands, open fields and Sycamore Park District land, surround the neighborhood, helping preserve the beautiful natural setting for years to come. Families will also appreciate the ability to walk or bike along the community paths to North Elementary School, the designated elementary school for Merry Oaks. This particular homesite offers the desirable advantage of no home directly behind the lot, creating a more open and private setting. Conveniently located near everyday amenities including Jewel, shopping and dining, while charming downtown Sycamore is just a short drive away. Bring your own builder and create a home designed specifically for your lifestyle. Minimum square footage for a custom ranch home is 2,750 and 3,600 for a custom two-story home. Association building requirements are available upon request. A rare opportunity to build a custom home in a community where nature, privacy and convenience come together beautifully. Drive by and experience the setting for yourself. For more information about the Merry Oaks community, its amenities and lifestyle, visit the Merry Oaks Living website.
