About 1211 S Grove Avenue

The Village of Barrington formalizes the ability to have your privacy spanning across 3 separate picturesque quarter acre parcels each with their own pins while enjoying the luxury of privacy and remaining just minutes from downtown Barrington, where upscale dining, boutique shopping, entertainment, and the Metra station create a lifestyle defined by both convenience and charm. An impressive concrete driveway guides you to the side-load, three-car attached garage and introduces this custom-designed Tudor residence. The front entry unfolds beautifully, revealing an elegant dining room adorned with expansive windows overlooking the front grounds, a built-in dry bar complete with beverage refrigerators, and seamless access to the remarkable eat-in kitchen. Thoughtfully reimagined, the kitchen showcases new white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a contrasting butcher block breakfast bar. The adjoining breakfast room captures panoramic views of the backyard and opens effortlessly to an expansive screened porch, creating an idyllic setting for everyday living and entertaining alike. Anchoring the main level is an inviting family room that spans the depth of the home, centered around a striking stone fireplace that radiates warmth and character. The first floor is further enhanced by a charming powder room featuring shiplap walls, a beautiful vanity, and complementary fixtures. The second level is equally impressive, offering four spacious bedrooms and two full baths. The vaulted primary suite serves as a true retreat, highlighted by skylights, a second fireplace, a comfortable sitting area, and private access to a spa-inspired bath. The luxurious primary bath is appointed with an elongated wood vanity and a zero-threshold European-style shower complete with a built-in seat. Of the remaining three bedrooms, one presents a brilliant tandem configuration, offering the flexibility for a fifth bedroom, nursery, home office, or private lounge. These bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath with a single vanity and shower-tub combination. The unfinished lower level provides endless possibilities for recreation, a future media room, fitness space, or additional living accommodations tailored to your needs. Outside, the serene grounds offer an enchanting escape. A vibrant fenced garden, expansive deck, and fully enclosed gazebo with electricity creating a private outdoor sanctuary designed for quiet mornings, lively gatherings, and everything in between.
