Perched on a fabulous 5-acre lot on a private cul-de-sac, this stunning, recently updated, and remodeled estate checks off all the boxes. As you approach this private sanctuary, the custom brick home presents itself as both welcoming and stately. A two-story foyer opens to a sunlit formal living room, a spacious dining room, and a two-story great room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace overlooking the beautiful grounds. Adjacent to the great room is an impeccably remodeled gourmet kitchen with luxe quartzite countertops, a spacious island, and professional-grade appliances, including a four-burner range with double griddle, double ovens (including convection), a steamer, and a commercial-grade vented hood. Don't miss the well-designed butler pantry and special coffee and juice bar with built-ins and serving space. The main floor also features a bedroom, currently used as a home office, and a full bath, plus a mudroom that is an organizer's dream, with a separate entrance to the backyard. Upstairs, a separate primary suite awaits with an updated bath, a large soaking tub, a spa shower, a built-in linen cabinet, and a walk-in closet. There are two additional bedrooms that share a fully updated bathroom and an ensuite room with a private bath. A thoughtfully planned laundry room with a sink and storage space completes the second floor. The lower level offers even more flexible living space with a private office/gym that could be used as another bedroom, a full bath, and an infrared sauna room. A large family room and game room are serviced by a wet bar and a potential second kitchen area, making this level ideal for in-laws or guests. Both the lower level and second floor are accessible via a formal front staircase and a convenient back staircase (one from the mudroom to the second floor and one from the garage to the lower level). The recent updates also include great storage space and hardwood flooring throughout the first and second levels. Car enthusiasts will love the oversized, heated, three-and-a-half-car garage. This property is a perfect retreat for relaxing among the trees and lush grounds, entertaining on the large deck and patio, splashing in the custom pool with a built-in spa, or swinging in a hammock overlooking the tranquil landscaping. Invite the whole team over for soccer, baseball, or football practice, or build a barn, sport court, or pickleball court on the flat, grassy side yard. This luxurious, well-appointed home exudes both elegance and comfortable living. Located in the highly sought-after Barrington Hills, this stunning retreat is ideal for families, guests, couples, and empty nesters alike. Close to award-winning schools, restaurants, shopping, and the quaint village of Barrington.
