Experience the charm of Village living blended with custom luxury in this exquisite Barrington home, offering over 5,700 square feet of beautifully finished living space across all levels! From the moment you step onto the welcoming front porch, you'll feel the charm and warmth that radiates throughout. Inside, natural light fills the open, airy floor plan-designed with entertaining and everyday living in mind. Rich hardwood floors, beautiful transoms, arched windows, and detailed millwork add character and elegance at every turn. The formal living and dining rooms are perfect for hosting, complete with a butler's pantry with wet bar to make serving a breeze. The chef's kitchen is a true delight with custom cabinetry, granite counters, a large island with breakfast bar, high-end appliances, and a sunlit breakfast area that opens to the patio-ideal for summer dinners under the stars. The family room is a showstopper, featuring a cozy fireplace and a wall of windows that frame stunning views. Need a quiet retreat? The sunroom-with its cedar ceiling and gas heater stove-is just the spot for morning coffee, a good book, or evening cocktails. Working from home is easy in the dedicated main-level office, and a mudroom with laundry hookups adds everyday convenience. Upstairs, the luxe primary suite offers a peaceful escape with dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath featuring an Aria soaking tub, oversized shower, and dual sinks. Three additional bedrooms include one en-suite, plus a stylish hall bath, laundry room, and a loft sitting area for added flexibility. The finished lower level is an entertainer's dream with rec and game spaces, a fifth bedroom, full bath, and even a wine tasting room! Step outside to enjoy the beautifully landscaped yard with a spacious patio, porte cochere, two-car detached garage with screened porch, and a lush lawn perfect for play and relaxation. Tucked in a prime location close to the Metra, shops, dining, Ron Beese Park and Baker's Lake - this home is perfection!
