About This Home

As of March 2025

Experience the perfect blend of classic craftsmanship and modern elegance at 515 E Main Street, nestled in the historic downtown area of Barrington. This fully restored 1920s Craftsman home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with all today's contemporary conveniences and upgrades. The prime location is steps away from upscale shopping and entertainment and the Metra UP/Northwestern Rail Station, which places Downtown Chicago just a short ride away. There is exquisite craftsmanship throughout! From the 8 1/2' ceilings on the main floor to the original oak hardwood floors and crown molding, every detail has been meticulously restored to its original glory. Modern conveniences include a state-of-the-art kitchen with 42" cabinets, custom granite countertops, a full suite of premium Samsung appliances, and a breakfast bar ideal for entertaining. Spacious living areas boast an open floor plan with a seamless flow from the kitchen to the living and dining areas, complemented by a new sliding glass door opening to a rear deck. Enjoy 3 brand-new luxurious bathrooms that have been beautifully renovated, including features like a walk-in shower with a custom glass door, a large soaking tub, and modern ceramic tiling. A fully finished basement offers a flexible space with 7 1/2' ceilings, vinyl plank flooring, a full bath, and ample storage, perfect for a game room or home theater. Outdoor living is possible with a beautifully landscaped yard and a new rear deck, perfect for outdoor dining and relaxation. In addition, a completely remodeled three-season room is in the front of the house. Comprehensive upgrades include new energy-efficient windows and HVAC systems, fresh paint, and modern lighting fixtures; no detail has been overlooked. This home captures the essence of Barrington's rich history and offers a lifestyle of convenience and luxury. Perfect for those who appreciate the character with modern flair, 515 E Main Street is more than just a home; it's a legacy waiting for its next chapter!
