Santa's coming early this year...step into a delightful journey back in time with a modern twist at 202 Hillside Avenue, where history meets today's lifestyle in the most charming way!

It's now a whimsical haven buzzing with character and contemporary flair, ready for new memories to be made.Imagine welcoming your guests through a charming front porch, perfect for year-round enjoyment. Inside, the expansive living and dining areas are perfect for hosting lively gatherings. The heart of the home-a beautifully updated kitchen with elegant quartz countertops and gleaming stainless steel appliances-flows seamlessly into an oversized mudroom, ensuring practicality meets style. Your dreams come true on the first floor with a recently renovated primary suite, a private retreat complete with an attached full bath and walk-in closet. Upstairs, discover three additional bedrooms, two full baths-including an ensuite-ideal for creating special spaces for family or guests. And don't miss the adorable loft, a perfect nook for curling up with your favorite book and letting your imagination wander.

Outside, a generous picket fenced yard with an updated patio awaits, ready to host magical evenings under the stars. With fresh paint, and other thoughtful updates, all that's left is for you to move in and enjoy! Ideally located just steps away from Barrington's vibrant downtown, shops, restaurants, and the Metra train, this home is more than just a place to live-it's a lifestyle. So, pack up the ornaments and string the lights-home is truly where the heart is at 202 W. Hillside, where the spirit of the holidays is a year-round celebration!
