Property Description

Charming French Country estate in the heart of Barrington Hills. This exquisite residence offers 5 bedrooms, 5.2 baths, and sophisticated architecture rich in classic detailing, yet crafted for a modern luxury lifestyle. Designer lighting, custom millwork, and high-end finishes are showcased throughout. A circular drive sets the tone as lush gardens, mature trees, and grassy expanses open to Flint Creek-with direct access to equestrian riding trails-creating a peaceful nature retreat just minutes to town, train, dining and District 220 schools. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer reveals sightlines to the picturesque rear grounds and a stunning great room with soaring ceilings, gas fireplace, balcony overlook, and a triple set of doors to the deck, creating a warm family gathering space. A spectacular hexagon dining room features a vaulted wood-plank ceiling and panoramic views of Flint Creek-perfect for sophisticated entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is every chef's dream with custom cabinetry, marble counters, massive island, walk-in pantry, and top-tier appliances. Adjacent breakfast room with radiant heated floors opens directly to the expansive deck for morning coffee or alfresco dining. The main floor primary suite is a private sanctuary with spa bath (steam shower + soaking tub), dual custom walk-in closets, a large sitting room / office, and a serene screened porch allowing for one floor luxury living. Also on the main level is a second ensuite bedroom with private deck, mudroom with service entrance, two powder rooms, and laundry. The second floor offers beautiful architectural character with balcony overlook, two additional bedrooms with dormers, updated shared bath, and a flex office/nursery with skylight. A private rear staircase leads to a full guest / in-law / au pair suite with radiant heated bath. Expansive walkout lower level is built for entertaining and everyday living with a huge recreation room with fireplace, wet bar with sitting area, exercise and game rooms, and full bath. Attached, heated 3-car garage with epoxy floors and storage. A serene setting with breathtaking views of Flint Creek and the surrounding landscape where you can enjoy nature, privacy, water views, and Barrington Hills lifestyle all in one extraordinary property.
