Property Description

Situated on a sprawling 5-acre estate in the heart of prestigious Barrington Hills, Illinois, this noteworthy home epitomizes the country lifestyle; a perpetual illustration of luxury and serenity entwined. An iron gated entry invites you through a sweeping tree lined drive as you arrive upon the residence. Surrounded by lush, meticulously landscaped grounds, this significant home offers both privacy and picturesque views of the stunning estate featuring a spring fed pond. As you approach the circle drive with a brick paver ribbon, you are met with a beautiful blue stone path and impressive covered entry leading to the front door. A bright, two story foyer greets you with its show stopping bridal staircase in this beautiful marble entryway. The gallery summons as you step through to find inside the home its grand living spaces with soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, custom trim and moldings, and high-end finishes throughout. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, complete with state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, custom in-set 42" cabinetry, oversized center island with a prep sink perfect for culinary creations and entertaining. This large kitchen also offers a breakfast bar, a sizable eating area, workspace, a rear staircase and also adjoins seamlessly to the charming four seasons room. The opulent master suite serves as a private sanctuary, featuring two lavish en-suite full bathrooms, 2 large custom built walk-in closets, a marble fireplace, and walk-out balcony with sweeping views of the expansive bluestone patio's English gardens and grounds. Also on the 2nd floor are three secondary bedrooms & two full baths plus a large joined flex space which offers ample sleeping arrangements and/or optional studio or workspace. Additional highlights include a substantial formal dining room with a stunning custom butler's pantry connecting to the kitchen, a grand living room with a beautiful fireplace, as well as an exquisite wood paneled library with floor to ceiling built-ins, stained glass transom windows, fireplace with verde marble surround, stately gold leafed ceiling and French doors offering direct exterior access to the heated bluestone patio. The lower level of this home has been beautifully finished with a family/media room, custom wet bar, brick fireplace, 5th bedroom with a walk-in closet and direct access to the full bath. The basement also hosts a gorgeous billiards room, and, for the wine enthusiast, a temperature controlled walk in wine cellar complete with a built in humidor, choice for the cigar aficionado! Outside, an oasis awaits as you step out onto the expansive iron-gated and heated blue stone patio featuring a full outdoor kitchen, large pergola, English gardens, and a built-in stone fire table. The pristine lawn provides a perfect setting for outdoor activities and gatherings. The property offers plenty of space for a future pool/pool house if you so desire. Built in 1995 this brick estate home has been extensively upgraded and impeccably maintained.
