Description
This home needs some TLC but has great potential. Nestled among mature trees, this exceptional estate offers a rare blend of timeless character and expansive, contemporary living spaces. A long, wooded private drive leads to a circular driveway, welcoming you to this remarkable 4.5-acre property where privacy, tranquility, and endless possibilities await in highly sought-after Barrington. The residence has evolved over time, combining the original home, built in 1959, with thoughtfully designed additions completed in 2001 and 2004. The original home features four bedrooms and three full baths. The kitchen and two bathrooms were extensively renovated in 2014, while the remaining living spaces retain their original charm, offering an excellent opportunity for future customization to reflect your personal style. One of the property's most distinctive features is the approximately 950-square-foot addition completed in 2001, formerly the workshop of a renowned violin maker. Filled with character and abundant natural light, this inspiring space offers exceptional flexibility and is ideally suited for a home-based business, artist's studio, executive office, theater, gallery, guest quarters, or a variety of other creative pursuits. Adjacent to this space is a separate approximately 540-square-foot dojo addition, completed around 2004, featuring traditional tatami mat flooring. This unique area is perfect for martial arts, yoga, meditation, fitness, recreation, or an imaginative cushioned playroom. The property also includes two attached two-car garages located in separate wings of the home. The original garage provides convenient access to the partial basement, while the newer oversized garage offers abundant room for vehicles, storage, workshop space, or hobbies. Ideally situated just minutes from the shopping, dining, and entertainment of downtown Barrington and Lake Zurich, the property also offers convenient access to the Barrington Metra station, making commuting to downtown Chicago a breeze. Offering extraordinary versatility, unmatched privacy, and exceptional potential, this one-of-a-kind estate presents a rare opportunity to own a property of this size, character, and flexibility in unincorporated Barrington. Whether you envision multi-generational living, a home business, creative studio space, or simply a private retreat surrounded by nature, the possibilities are truly endless.
