Beyond the gated entrance, a circular drive greets you to a custom built french provincial style home with 7 bedrooms and 8.5 baths. The mature trees lining the property's perimeter provide a sense of seclusion while you remain just minutes away from all the conveniences needed to support a busy lifestyle. This well designed home has a 2 story foyer in all its grandeur to welcome guests. The resurfaced Brazilian cherry hardwood floor along with two winding open staircases to the upper and lower levels are quite stunning. Right off the foyer is a cozy but sizable living room overlooking the front yard while the dining room on the opposite side is close to the kitchen and ready for entertaining. Both rooms include crown molding, tray ceilings with in-let lighting and floor in-lays to match the ceiling. The nearby kitchen is suited for any chef, engulfed with custom cabinetry, granite counters, top of line stainless steel appliances (Wolf Range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, 2 Bosch warming drawers) and a substantial island hosting a vegetable sink, built-in microwave, warming drawer and wine fridge. Flowing off the kitchen through thoughtfully designed archways is the impressive family room. It is the perfect place for gathering while showcasing the first of 5 fireplaces, a coffered ceiling, floor to ceiling french doors allowing plenty of natural light and access to the composite deck. The main level offers an abundance of space including a first floor master suite, an office, a study with cherry built-in bookshelves and fireplace, large laundry/mud room, full bathroom off the garage and an elevator to access all three levels. The main level master suite is quite the retreat and perfect for any in-law living arrangement. It offers a private fireplace, separate sitting room with access to the sunroom, spacious walk-in closet with custom cherry organizers and a master bathroom that includes a jetted tub, multi-headed shower, double vanity and heated floors. The 2nd level of this remarkable home will not disappoint presenting 5 private suites including another master suite. A set of french doors open to the 2nd master suite as it boasts pure serenity showcasing the architectural design of the ceiling, a private balcony overlooking the backyard and a turret sitting room full of natural light and a fireplace to curl up with a good book. Custom cherry organizers line the his and her walk-in closets with separate door locks. The master ensuite is like an oasis with a jetted tub, double vanities, heated floor and multi-headed shower. Bedroom #6 and or bonus room can be multi-functional as a magnificent playroom or subdivided into two separate bedrooms with a full bath and 2nd floor laundry closet. But wait, that is not all! The fully finished lower level with 10' ceilings is an extension to this already exceptional home with a recreational area and stone fireplace, a custom bar with tons of seating space, a game room, wine cellar, media room ready for any design and the 7th suite or possible exercise room with a full bathroom and steam shower. The tranquil backyard is equipped with a large composite deck, dog run, shed, extensive fully owned solar panel system and awaits the next homeowner's imagination! The newly heated 4-car attached garage is over 1000sf, has vaulted ceilings for any type of lift system and oversized garage doors. Location is everything! Just minutes from downtown Barrington, schools, shopping, restaurants and the Metra station. Unfortunately, the homeowner never got to move in to enjoy this one of a kind property but made over $200K in upgrades since last October. A full list of featured updates is available. This unique home is definitely worth a look!
