Charm & character flow inside & out of this vintage farmhouse in Barrington's historic district. Moved from Deer Grove, it once was a general store. Then moved down the tracks where it was a millenary shop-then a woman's hats store on Cook St. It was moved to its current location in 1854 where it was the Miller Farm. You will find this home to be in excellent condition offering hand pegged white oak hardwood floors, thoughtfully remodeled kitchen featuring center island w/breakfast bar, cherry cabinets, Corian counters, and SS KitchenAid appliances, updated electrical and fixtures, and Anderson windows throughout. One Bedroom & full bath on the 1st floor. Remaining bedrooms & 2nd full bath upstairs. All bedrooms have walk-in closets. New carpeting, interior paint, and window treatments. Exterior cedar siding was painted in November 2023. You will discover equal amenities outside of the home with an oversized concrete driveway, 2.5 detached garage, stamped concrete patio, beautifully landscaped backyard with perennial gardens throughout the property. Basement w/ample storage, work bench, and newer washer/dryer. Nationally recognized 220 School District. Walkable to downtown Barrington where you will find Metra's UP-NW line, grocery stores, coffee-shops, restaurants, boutiques, and a lively community. The Arboretum of South Barrington and Deer Park Town Center within driving distance.
