Barrington Hills IL Home for Sale

Fantastic opportunity in this "project house"!!! The story behind it is a love story of sorts. Couple buys a lot and decide to build their dream home. Children come along and the house slowly takes shape, with help from many. Years pass and more and more gets completed. Wife passes away and husband vows to finish the house. Children become adults and leave the nest; dad keeps on working. A boating enthusiast, he designs the upper level like a cruise ship with sleeping berths for the grandkids and lots of "whimsy". Home never gets completely finished and is now part of an estate. Superior quality throughout but in need of many updates and finishing. Gorgeous lot and the house has a grand presence on the high part of the cul-de-sac. Huge Master Bedroom wing is unfinished but has plumbing and electric. Incredible potential. Call Mark for more details.
