Shady Lane residence offers great location
One of the best-kept secrets in the Elgin area is an unincorporated section southwest of town that offers very desirable custom and semi-custom-built homes.
This week's featured home is a lovely brick ranch with an asphalt driveway and an in-ground pool. The home rests on a double lot that backs to a nature preserve, so privacy is a premium in this fine location.
