Description

Perched atop nearly six lush acres, this architecturally crafted timber-frame estate is a rare sanctuary where refined living meets sustainable design. With expansive grounds ideal for organic gardens, chickens, horses, and even livestock, this property offers the freedom to cultivate a self-sufficient lifestyle-without compromising luxury, beauty, or comfort. Intentionally designed for low-maintenance, energy-efficient living, it invites you to slow down, spread out, and live with purpose. Crafted from reclaimed Douglas Fir and finished with enduring natural materials, the home exudes artisanal craftsmanship and timeless elegance. From the 1.5-inch thick quarter-sawn red oak floors to the custom black walnut doors and trim, every detail reflects a commitment to quality and character. The expansive open-concept post-and-beam layout is both inviting and dramatic, with soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and seamless transitions between rooms. The two story great room is both impressive and inviting, with exposed beams, seamlessly flowing into the spacious gourmet kitchen, with professional grade appliances, opening to the dining area and a large enclosed porch - an ideal setting for both grand entertaining and intimate everyday living. Step outside to a bluestone patio with a built-in grill-perfect for alfresco dinners under the stars. A glass-wrapped atrium provides a peaceful escape for morning tea or lush indoor gardening, and is thoughtfully plumbed for a hot tub. The main level also features a private library or media lounge and a guest ensuite-perfect for in-laws, visitors, or multigenerational living. A stunning atrium offers a tranquil space for morning tea surrounded by inspiring indoor gardens, and is plumbed for a hot tub. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite boasts a spa-inspired bath, two custom closets, and a private balcony overlooking the grounds. A separate wing offers two generous bedrooms, a spacious full bath, and a reading nook or playroom. The walk-out lower level adds exceptional versatility with a large family room, game room, fitness studio, wine cellar, tasting room, turreted music or play space, private guest suite, and second laundry. Radiant heated floors run through the entire lower level, main floor, and primary bath, supported by a boiler-based hot water system and insulated concrete walls (R-40). A new DaVinci 50-year composite slate roof (2023) adds further efficiency and durability. Outdoors, enjoy the bounty of a 7,000-square-foot irrigated and fenced garden with perennials, herbs, asparagus, and fruit trees. The oversized two-stall barn with attached paddock is ready for horses, goats and livestock, and there's ample space to add a chicken hutch, pool, sports court, or soccer field. Located just minutes from award-winning schools, boutique shopping, dining, and the Metra in the charming Village of Barrington-this estate is more than a home; it's a legacy of living well.
