About This Home
As of September 2023Wait a minute! All this and a pool as well? This stunning Short Hills home is nestled in between the renowned neighborhoods of Westwood and Glen Acres, very close to Barrington's Village Center. The home is set amongst beautiful oaks, hickorys, and maples some of which had their start when the land was a part of the Lageschulte Farmstead. Most of the surrounding homes are occupied by families who have spent the last 20 to 50 years enjoying this quiet circle...I guess when a place is this special, it's hard to leave. The young families lucky enough to settle here are drawn by the locale, the neighborhood green, the award winning schools, and the proximity to transportation and the quaint shops and restaurants of downtown Barrington. The colonial style home itself features crown moldings throughout, 5 bedrooms, and three and a half baths. A beautiful kitchen with an island almost as big as Manhattan, 2 fireplaces, a walk out basement, and a wine cellar with room enough for 24 cases of fermented fun! The main level features the kitchen island and breakfast area open to the family room and it's beautiful fireplace. Rounding out this level is the dining room and living room, perfect as they are, but with enough space to let your imagination run wild! The second level features the ensuite primary with a walk-in modular closet and three more spacious, yet warm, bedrooms all with ample modular closets. Each room has great views of the pool and/or naturescape below through the large windows. As wonderful as this living space is, the backyard is even more spectacular, with its screened porch and deck overlooking the lushly landscaped backyard pool that might give the garden of Eden a run for its money. As good as the photos look, this must be seen to be believed. Nearly new roof, and windows indicate the amount of care provided to this home. The 2+ car garage has modular elevated storage and ample room for two vehicles, a refrigerator and all the toys one can collect in a life well-lived.
