About this home
Welcome to a truly exceptional Barrington Hills estate, gracefully set on 5+ acres of serene, storybook beauty. A winding, wooded drive sets the stage, opening to a property with breathtaking, postcard-worthy views in every direction. Inside, you'll find timeless architectural details-stunning coffered ceilings, elegant columns, arched doorways, and an airy, light-filled layout with soaring ceilings and oversized rooms designed to showcase the incredible scenery. Step through the grand entrance into a dramatic two-story foyer crowned by a designer chandelier and a sweeping staircase. The adjacent dining room offers an elegant setting for memorable gatherings and flows seamlessly into the main living areas. From here, sightlines lead you straight into the striking great room, where triple sliders frame the views and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace anchors the space. A chef's delight, the spacious kitchen features a bayed breakfast area with its own fireplace and French door to the deck, along with an island with breakfast bar, top-tier appliances, and a generous walk-in pantry. Double French doors reveal a private study-richly paneled with a stunning stone fireplace with arched window-an ideal work-from-home retreat. The main-floor primary suite is a luxurious haven with a sitting area, deck access, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite bath. Two half baths, a laundry room, and a rear staircase complete the main level. Upstairs, an impressive balcony walkway overlooking both the foyer and great room sets the tone for the second floor. Three spacious ensuite bedrooms each offer walk-in closets. Two fabulous bonus rooms, a kitchenette, and an additional half bath create the perfect setup for guests, in-laws, or private hobby spaces. Prepare to be wowed by the expansive walkout lower level-an entertainer's dream with a large recreation area, fireplace, game area with wet bar and billiards space, cigar den, second game/play room, fifth ensuite bedroom, and abundant storage. Step out to the deck or paver patio to enjoy lush landscaping, total privacy, and peaceful views of nature. A built-in firepit invites cozy evenings under the stars. Additional highlights include a newer Trex deck (2022), heated 4-car garage, and newer cedar shake roof (2020). All just minutes to town, train, shopping, dining, and award-winning D220 schools. A rare opportunity to own a private luxury retreat in one of Barrington Hills most sought-after settings.
