Property Description
This charming Biltmore cottage is one of the first homes to be built in what is arguably one of the Barrington Area's most desirable neighborhoods! Constructed in 1927 and sitting on more than 3/4 acre, the location offers serene, peaceful living on a quiet, interior street. Walk up the stone-topped front steps, through the decorative cast iron porch, and you'll find the cottage features 2 bedrooms and a full bath on the main level, plus kitchen, living room with wood-burning brick fireplace and a step-down sunroom / den with windows all along two sides. Finished upstairs/attic features several rooms for easy storage or play spaces, plus another bathroom. Full basement has laundry and lots of space for hobbies, storage, etc. Property also includes a detached 2-car garage and storage shed. Many mature trees line the perimeter the property, and you'll love what is considered to be one of the oldest oak trees in the area, at the corner of the deck behind the house. Rehab and/or expand the existing home or build your dream house for the ultimate in Biltmore living, with highly-rated Barrington schools and easy access to both Barrington & Lake Zurich, Metra and more! New roof in 2023, New sump pump in 2022, New gutters on back and one side of house in 2025, New water heater in 2017, New boiler in 2019. 2x window AC units were new in 2024 and will stay with the house. Lots of old / original plumbing pipe replaced with PVC in 2024. Home & property are being sold as-is. Absolutely tremendous opportunity at this price!
