A brand-new roof (March 2026) adds peace of mind, while classic details including arched doorways, rich millwork, and gleaming hardwood floors create warmth and authenticity throughout. Set on over 4 picturesque acres with a tranquil pond, the property offers a serene, pastoral setting just minutes from Barrington Village shopping, dining, Metra access, and award-winning D220 schools. A circular drive and inviting paver walkway set the tone for what awaits inside. The welcoming interior unfolds with graceful arched openings, a charming coat room, and a spacious living room anchored by a painted brick fireplace and custom built-ins. The adjoining dining room features two delightful corner cabinets, butler's pantry access, and French doors that open to a light filled sunroom, perfect for effortless entertaining. With three sets of sliders leading to blooming gardens, the sunroom brings the outdoors in. At the heart of the home, the thoughtfully designed kitchen blends rustic elegance with modern function, featuring leathered granite countertops, a butcher block island, breakfast bar, and high-end appliances. It flows seamlessly into the breakfast area and inviting family room, where a stone fireplace and double French doors open to a screened porch, ideal for relaxed indoor-outdoor living. Enjoy peaceful mornings overlooking the pond or cozy evenings under the stars on the paver patio gathered around the built-in firepit. The main level also offers a mudroom, powder room, and both front and rear staircases for added convenience. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with a vaulted, beamed ceiling, skylit walk-in closet, dressing room, and a beautifully appointed ensuite bath. Two additional spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a conveniently located laundry room complete the second level. Two basements provide exceptional flexibility, including a finished recreation room with full bath, plus a separate utility and storage area with second laundry and exterior access. Outdoors, the fenced yard is perfect for pets, while a three-car garage and shed add functionality. The expansive grounds offer endless possibilities for gardening, horses, recreation, or hobby pursuits. A rare blend of charm, space, and setting, this enchanting farmhouse invites you to slow down, settle in, and fall in love.
