Leave behind the commotion, craziness & chaos of today's world. Arrive home to your serene stunning sanctuary in exclusive Barrington Hills (BH) where almost every home is on a minimum of 5 acres. Walk around your 5 rolling acres, look at your 125 evergreens, each about 75-ft tall along the perimeter of your elevated land, & HEAR ONLY THE SINGING OF BIRDS. Welcome to your brick ranch home inspired by America's greatest architect, FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT. It's a timeless masterpiece filled with light from floor-to-ceiling (F2C) windows in each room. Walls are almost all F2C windows in kitchen, LR, dining & family areas so you can look 100s or 1,000s of feet in all directions to see deer, birds, flowers & trees. You'll be enthralled in the dining & family areas by the patterns & colors of the custom-made art glass windows that replicate Wright's. (The custom-made iron gates as you enter with pride your long, private driveway also replicate Wright's.) FINALLY AVAILABLE. So many people would love to live on 5 acres in BH but on May 1 only 4 such homes, including 80 Meadow Hill, are available for less than $1,450,000. The other 3: one built 90 years ago on heavily-trafficked, 55-mph Algonquin Rd; one outside the award-winning Barrington school system & across the street from a 400-acre farm; the last is 2,000 sq ft, 2 BRs in bsmt, built in 1950, barn & fence sold "as is," & home advertised as a possible "tear down." Do your own research the day you read this. The owner of 80 Meadow Hill has walked inside 100 homes designed by Wright & knows his philosophy & the reasons his guests have been captivated by this magical home during the 38 years he's owned it. (Do you really want the same old cookie-cutter McMansion??) Owner is retiring & moving out-of-state. Thus, you have a ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY to own this breathtaking home & land (30 ft above Bow Lane, 10 ft above Meadow Hill). WALK 2 STEPS INSIDE the home & LOOK STRAIGHT to your 32-ft foyer & LR with cathedral ceiling, and 100s of feet into your yard. LR boasts 8-ft wide gorgeous green marble fireplace.. AT ENTRY DOOR LOOK LEFT at the open floor plan & see part of your family & dining areas. Walk into the areas & note the 8 x 8 ft brick fireplace wall. The large kitchen features generous counter space & cabinets, a walk-in pantry, & views of 100s of feet of land & trees. The spacious "laundry room" with a 10-ft wide wall of windows doubles as an office. AT ENTRY DOOR TURN RIGHT & see the long art gallery hall to the wing of 3 BRs & 2 full baths..
