About this home
Cannot beat the location! Retreat to a sanctuary where classic charm meets an incredible outdoor lifestyle at 170 S. Ela Rd. From the moment you pull up the drive, a sense of total seclusion takes over. The property is thoughtfully designed with a significant landscape berm that acts as a natural buffer, wrapping the home in privacy and creating a peaceful, tucked-away atmosphere that feels worlds apart from everything else. The heart of the home features a spacious kitchen that flows effortlessly into the living areas, bathed in natural light and anchored by a cozy fireplace. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, now featuring a new showerhead faucet and an updated exhaust fan. Recent 2026 updates bring a fresh feel throughout, including new carpeting in two upstairs bedrooms and the pool room, along with a new microwave and updated faucets in the laundry and bathrooms. Throughout the interior, large windows frame picturesque views of the expansive, verdant grounds. The outdoor spaces are the true showstopper. The property opens up to a beautiful shared pond, offering the perfect spot to launch a paddleboard for a calm afternoon on the water. As the sun sets, head over to the built-in firepit-an ideal destination for starlit conversations. The grounds have been enhanced with fresh 2026 landscaping and newly planted trees, while the ridge-vented roof has been meticulously maintained with a new attic fan thermostat. You'll also find a one-of-a-kind shed featuring a living roof installed in 2025. This home is designed for entertaining and comes move-in ready with impressive inclusions. The lower level is a destination of its own, featuring a pool table complete with cues, balls, and a ping pong conversion kit, complemented by a large pool room mirror and built-in theater speakers. The basement kitchen fridge, bar stools, and the shed stay with the property, ensuring you're ready to host from day one. While you'll feel completely tucked away in your private retreat, the vibrant heart of Barrington is just moments away, offering easy access to local boutiques, gourmet dining, and the Metra. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where every detail-from the living roof to the serene pond access-celebrates a connection to nature....
