Welcome home! This exceptional Georgian is an historic hometown treasure located in the heart of Barrington on a tree-lined street & easily walkable to the Village's downtown with its upscale restaurants, shopping, Starbucks, Catlow movie theater, Metra train to Chicago, and A+ Barrington schools! The original house was built in 1894 and its architecture came to life in 2005 when it was fully refurbished and expanded by its current owner. Chicago architect John Eifler's design harmonizes the exterior of Chicago common brick, cut limestone, cedar trim, taper sawn shingles, half-round copper gutters and Marvin Ultimate windows. The builder's utilization of "green" building systems makes this home remarkably efficient. Main level features a welcoming foyer, two home offices, family room & dining room. Enjoy cooking & entertaining in this bright, large Chef's kitchen with custom inset cabinetry, butler's pantry, Aga cooker & Herbeau farmhouse sink. Second level has a well-appointed master suite updated with NEW walk-in dressing closet with elfa organizer system, and 4 addt'l en-suite bedrooms. Third level with finished bonus space offers an idyllic homeschooling room or guest quarters w/full bath. Lower level has a generous rec room, full bath, large laundry room w/space for sewing and craft/hobby area, and walks out to the 3-car heated garage. Interior features include 3-stop elevator, exceptional millwork, zoned heating & cooling, oil rubbed bronze hardware, etched glass light fixtures, 4 gas fireplaces, towel warmers, stained-glass window, backup generator, central vac, NEW boiler and whole house sound system.
