Gary, thanks for your comments.  This is an incredibly beautiful property and it is so rare to find a home on this large of a lot ON the Fox River, especially in Cary, IL.  It is a great opportunity for the right buyer.  I love the house, too, it is so unique and full of character...a wonderful design for a waterfront home....there are stunning views from all of the windows!  As long as you are on the  River North of Algonquin Road (Route 62) in Algonquin, IL, you can travel North on the Fox River on your watercraft, through the locks in McHenry and access the Chain of Lakes, the most popular waterway in the United States, according to the Fox Waterway Agency Web Site!
