About This Home

As of February 2023

This home will surprise you! It is much larger than it appears from the street! This truly is a sprawling ranch located on a large interior lot in sought after Tower Lakes. In Tower Lakes you aren't just buying a home, you are buying a community. Once an eclectic mix of summer cottages for Chicago residents, Tower Lakes is now an idyllic close-knit community with lakes, tennis & volleyball courts located near expansive forest preserves perfect for hiking, biking and cross country skiing. Every day will feel like a vacation! The floorplan is very versatile and is well suited for every day life as well as entertaining a crowd. The newer kitchen and sunroom (both 2004) are large with volume ceilings/skylights and are open to the family room. The kitchen is the ideal place to cook family dinners and huge holiday meals with all stainless appliances including a Kitchen-Aid 5-burner gas range with hood above, dishwasher and newer Samsung stainless refrigerator (2021). The kitchen is not only functional, but also gorgeous with 42" cream cabinets, travertine floors, granite counters, marble backsplash and both the custom center island and buffet/wet bar are made from reclaimed wood from a barn. The sunroom is flooded with natural light through a wall of windows and parties will flow outside to the flagstone patio with pergola overhead with firepit nearby (S'mores anyone?). The living room and garage were added in the 1980s. The fireplace in the family room has an insert and creates a very warm and inviting spot to curl up with a book and a glass of wine with smells of chili simmering on the range wafting throughout the home . The dining room fireplace is decorative and a great place to put candles for romantic dinners. The master retreat with en-suiite bath and his/her closets is the ideal place to relax at the end of the day. This home really feels like a vacation getaway with beautiful hardwood floors throughout the main floor and even some accents of knotty pine. The partially finished basement has stained concrete floor and provides great space to play games, work out, etc. The garage is extra deep and is a great place for a work shop or for bike/kayak storage. Enjoy neighborhood activities - Fall Chili Cookoff; tons of Youth activities; 4th of July celebration with parade; Men's Day; sailing/kayaking; ice skating/fishing; tennis/pickleball, concerts at nearby gazebo...the list goes on and on! Tower Lakes is conveniently located near both Barrington & Fox River Grove Metra stations. Blue Ribbon Barrington schools! Newer furnace (2018) and A/C (2019). Newer LG front load washer/dryer (2016). Newer roof (2018).
