This extraordinary estate offers the perfect blend of timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and breathtaking natural beauty. Nestled on nearly an acre of professionally landscaped grounds and backing to 45 acres of protected conservancy, this custom-built residence promises privacy, tranquility, and elegance at every turn. European-inspired architecture shines throughout with soaring ceilings, rich mahogany doors, and panoramic views from nearly every room. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with manicured gardens, paver walkways, a stately columned gazebo, serene fire pit, and a picturesque pond with dual waterfalls-creating a truly enchanting setting year-round. Inside, an elegant formal dining room with a dramatic two-story ceiling, grand chandelier and butler's pantry sets the stage for memorable entertaining. The open-concept design flows effortlessly into a magnificent great room with coffered ceilings, arched columned entries, and a balcony overlook. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen, fully outfitted with premium appliances, a walk-in pantry/prep kitchen, and a sun-filled dining area with beamed ceilings and stunning views. The adjacent sunroom and screened porch extend the living space and invite seamless indoor-outdoor living. A richly appointed study features paneled walls, custom built-ins, and a hidden drop-down screen-ideal for work or relaxation. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with a spa-inspired bath and expansive walk-in closet. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms each have private baths and share a scenic loft. Thoughtfully designed for modern living, the home offers laundry rooms on both the main and upper levels. The finished walkout lower level is a destination in itself-featuring a custom wet bar, recreation and game areas, home theater with a 11-foot screen, fitness room with adjoining steam and locker rooms, a 600-bottle wine cellar, guest bedroom, and two full baths-perfect for entertaining or multi-generational living. Car enthusiasts will appreciate the heated 4-car garage with two hydraulic lifts, accommodating up to six vehicles. Located just minutes from top-rated Barrington schools, Metra, I-90, shopping, and dining-this is a one-of-a-kind offering where luxury, comfort, and nature come together in perfect harmony.
