About this home
No kidding! This home & property may improve your physical & mental health & add years to your life. Google the term "biophilia & longevity" & you'll read that countless studies have shown that maximizing exposure to natural light & views of trees & nature reduces stress, anxiety, blood pressure, risk of heart attack & stroke, brings happiness & joy, & contributes to longevity. This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired timeless home with floor-to-ceiling (F2C) walls of windows in every room with views of 100s or 1,000s of feet of elevated & rolling land & with 125 evergreen trees 75-feet tall along most of the border of the property & beautiful deciduous trees inside the border on serene Meadow Hill Road can lead to improved physical & mental health, happiness & joy... Wright is considered America's greatest architect. More than 1,000 books have been written about him, & he has millions of fans. NOW THIS WRIGHT-INSPIRED TIMELESS MASTERPIECE is your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own. Current owner has lived here 38 years and is moving from IL to join family. Not only has he loved this estate but it has captivated numerous visitors including prominent IL architect Don Erickson who was an apprentice to Wright himself & noted architect and author Tom Heinz who has written more than two dozen books about Wright & restored some of Wright's homes... This sanctuary in unique Barrington Hills sits on 5 rolling & elevated acres (30 ft above Bow Lane, 10 ft above Meadow Hill). You'll love that this magical home is filled with light in each room and offers panoramic views. It blurs the distinction between inside & outside as Wright intended. Using Wright's principles, the home is sited diagonally to Meadow Hill to allow even more light & views. 5-ft eaves prevent summer sun from hitting the windows so the home remains cool. HOME DETAILS: 32-ft foyer & LR with soaring cathedral ceiling, green marble fireplace. Open floor plan of your family & dining areas with brick fireplace wall. Large kitchen with generous counterspace & cabinets, walk-in pantry. UNIQUE: Stand at kitchen sink & look 90 degrees to your right & you'll see outside 26 linear ft of windows. Spacious "laundry room" with 10-ft wide wall of windows doubles as an office. 30-ft art gallery hall leads to secluded primary BR & ensuite spa bathroom at end of home with soaring ceilings. Whirlpool for 2 & separate oversize shower. Huge primary BR has space for desk & sitting area for remote workers. Between 2 other BRs is full bathroom with 8-ft double vanity... GROUND LEVEL: 2,440 sq ft. Closets have 84 linear ft to hang clothes. LOWER LEVEL: 1,400 sq ft & 42 linear ft of F2C wooden cabinets with 34 drawers + rods to hang clothes. Attached garage fits 2 cars + 21x7 sq ft for storage. SAVE TIME: 9 minutes to FRGrove Metra station...FREE BONUSES: Custom-made iron driveway gates & colorful art glass windows in dining area replicate Wright's... WE KNOW MANY PEOPLE WILL WANT TO SEE THIS HOME & learn about Wright. We can show it to only a limited # of qualified potential buyers. PLEASE CALL TO REQUEST A SHOWING ONLY IF EACH OF THESE 5 ITEMS APPLY TO YOU: 1) You have looked at all 25 photos & have read the detailed descriptions to know if this estate fits your needs... 2) You want to live away from the craziness of today's world, and want to live where you can walk around your 5 acres & the ONLY SOUND YOU'LL HEAR IS SINGING BIRDS, & not trains, trucks, airplanes... 3) You don't expect the property to have a pool & barn. You can add each at your cost. (Within 10 minutes are 3 commercial stables to board your horses.)... 4) You have called 48 hours before desired showing... 5) You have already obtained & can send us i) your Proof of Funds Statement from a major investment company or bank, or ii) a pre-approval letter from a major lender which will provide the funds (not from a mortgage banker)...Stock market highs & falling mortgage rates = big + for buyers.
