Property Description
Historic, charming Jewel Park Cape Cod situated on a rare double lot in the heart of the Village of Barrington. This timeless residence blends preserved architectural charm with beautifully curated updates offering timeless heritage and appeal, with modern comforts throughout. From the moment you arrive at the curb, this home captivates with its classic brick exterior, covered entry with bluestone porch, window boxes, and brick paver walkways framed by mature trees and professional landscaping. Inside, vintage treasures shine - hardwood floors, original 2-panel doors, and lush moldings create warmth and authenticity throughout. The welcoming foyer opens to a gracious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, Anthropologie wall shelving and gorgeous Serena & Lily lighting, flowing seamlessly into the dining room, elevated with designer wall coverings and anchored by its original built-in corner cabinetry. The gourmet kitchen features white bead board cabinetry, marble countertops, subway tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, butcher block island, walnut bench seat, built-in hutch, stainless steel appliances, updated brass faucet, pretty pendant lighting, and updated hardware. Recent enhancements include a new LG gas range (2025) with a warming drawer, and Whirlpool refrigerator (2021). Serena & Lily light fixtures add refined coastal elegance, while a new wool staircase runner (2021) introduces warmth and texture. A bright heated sunroom/mudroom offers year-round enjoyment and has been refreshed with new windows, filling the space with natural light. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a charming sitting area or nursery, and updated en-suite bath. Two additional bedrooms share the hallway bath with classic clawfoot tub, honoring the home's historic character. The finished lower level with walk-up exterior access offers a large recreation room, laundry area with LG front load washer and dryer, and the 4th bedroom or optional space for your home office. Additional improvements include Aprilaire humidifier (2022), smart thermostat (2020), water heater (2019), water softener (2019), refurbished original windows and front door, and a drywall-finished garage interior with recessed lighting (2021). Outdoor living has been thoughtfully expanded with a large brick paver patio (re-laid 2025), a charming 4' side yard gated, picket fence was installed in 2022, driveway seal coating (2025), refinished play set (2025), and a newly planted Magnolia tree (2025) adding seasonal beauty. The 1.5-car garage plus brick paver carport is ideal for covered entertaining to complete the offering! All located just moments from downtown Barrington, Metra Station, Citizen's Park, Barrington Park District, Barrington Library, hip restaurants and coffee shops, trendy shopping, 2 local grocery stores and award-winning Barrington schools: Roslyn Elementary School, Barrington Middle School - Prairie, and Barrington High School.
