This is a true stunner, a 5-bedroom, 4.1-bath home with an attached 3 car garage in downtown Barrington has been extensively renovated over the past three years, virtually every major system, surface, and space has been updated beautifully. The kitchen features a quartz island, brand new custom-sized refrigerator, all new appliances with the exception of the stove, new custom walk-in pantry including new shelving, and upgraded lighting and hardware. Full bedroom and bathroom on the main level, as well as TWO custom mudrooms, an office area and a screened in porch. Three more large bright bedrooms are upstairs. The primary features a large walk-in closet, a completely remodeled primary bath with dual sinks, a soaking tub and separate shower. The upstairs layout includes thoughtful extras that are hard to find in-town, like a rooftop area off the master overlooking arguably the best lot in town. Some additional interior updates completed since 2023 include full wainscoting throughout, all new light fixtures, adding a full basement bathroom, two custom mudrooms, wallpaper accents, custom built-ins, new stair runners, plus the whole home has been painted. All bathrooms have been fully renovated, including the primary suite. New hardwood flooring runs through the upper level and on the stairs, new carpeting in the basement bedroom (currently used as the gym) as well as in one of the upstairs bedrooms, plus brand-new flooring throughout the basement as well. The backyard is a standout for a downtown property. Outdoor features include a new front porch, new siding and roof, Trex deck, stone patio with gas fireplace, screened-in porch with electric and TV, hot tub, a renovated treehouse with new roof, brand new fence, and professionally redesigned landscaping with beautiful mature hydrangeas. Mechanical upgrades cover a new AC, water heater, reverse osmosis system, and whole-home water filtration. The attached 3-car garage rounds out a home where the major work is already done, walking distance to town, school, and the train station.
