This 1917 charmer sits right in Barrington's historic Village neighborhood, which means restaurants, shops, the Metra, Hough Street Elementary, and every event on the town calendar are all on foot from your front door. Step inside and the character is all still here-original hardwood floors, substantial trim and moldings, built-ins,… Read More paneled doors, arched openings, and tall windows that pour light into every room. The kitchen means business, with stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry and counter space, and a long island with seating for everybody who shows up, opening to a rear family room with sunny southern exposure. The living room, meanwhile, flat-out shows off: soaring ceiling, windows stacked top to bottom, gas fireplace, built-in sound system. A separate dining room sits under a large bay window, a refreshed full bath rounds out the main level, and upstairs four bright bedrooms-the primary is oversized-share a renovated full bath with a granite-topped vanity and classic white subway tile. Out back, the wraparound deck has been rebuilt and refinished, the fenced yard is professionally landscaped, and the brick patio is equally happy with morning coffee or evening cocktails. The detached two car garage picked up new doors and mechanicals plus a newer epoxy floor, and roughly 800 square feet of partially finished basement handles rec space, storage, and laundry. Smart thermostat, smart video doorbells, whole house humidifier, reverse osmosis filtered water at the kitchen sink and refrigerator-turns out a century-old house can have very modern habits. Add a quiet, tree-lined street of turn-of-the-century neighbors, Barrington's White House nearby, and award-winning Barrington 220 schools-Hough Street Elementary and Barrington High School both an easy walk-and you've got the whole package. Four bedrooms, two baths, a hundred years of good bones, and a location you simply can't beat. Welcome to Barrington Village living! Read Less
