LIVE YOUR DREAM! REMODELED WRIGHT-INSPIRED HOME & NEW LIFESTYLE. So many people like you would love to live in exclusive Barrington Hills (BH)--where almost all homes are on 5 acres--& leave behind the craziness & chaos of today's world. But sadly, very few will because usually only 3 or 4 homes in BH are offered at less than $1,450,000. And no home will be more influenced by America's greatest architect, FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT, as your serene sanctuary at 80 Meadow Hill..Imagine the pride you & your family will feel & how special your guests will feel when entering your long private driveway protected by the custom-made iron gates that replicate Wright's. Drive up the hill & see along the perimeter of your elevated land your 125 evergreens, each about 75-ft tall, giving you privacy..Arrive at this timeless masterpiece filled with light from floor-to-ceiling (F2C) windows in each room. Light brings joy! 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, flowers & trees. You'll be enthralled by the patterns & colors of the custom-made art glass windows that replicate Wright's..Walk around your 5 rolling acres & HEAR ONLY THE SINGING OF BIRDS. Add tennis & basketball courts, 3-hole golf course, pool, hockey rink, or horse barn. You'll be the envy of business associates, relatives & friends..Owner is an architecture enthusiast & Wright aficionado who walked inside 100 homes designed by Wright. He knows Wright's features & the reasons his guests have been captivated by this magical home during the 38 years he's owned it. Owner is retiring & moving from IL. It's a ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY to own this breathtaking home & land (30 ft above Bow Lane, 10 ft above Meadow Hill)..It's a great home for music & conversations. VISITORS HAVE INCLUDED prominent architects who studied with Wright as apprentices; world-renowned classical & jazz musicians; authors of books about Wright, classical music & jazz; GRAMMY & PULITZER PRIZE WINNERS (not Beyonce or Taylor, but ROYKO, MINGUS, & LARMORE); & top Chicago execs & attorneys..WALK 2 STEPS INSIDE & look straight to your 32-ft foyer & LR with soaring cathedral ceiling, green marble fireplace & see 100s of feet into your yard. AT ENTRY DOOR LOOK LEFT at the open floor plan of your family & dining areas with brick fireplace wall. Large kitchen features generous counter space & cabinets, walk-in pantry, & views of 100s of ft of land & trees. 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. Secluded primary BR at end of home & ensuite spa bathroom have soaring ceilings. Whirlpool for 2 & separate oversize shower. Huge primary BR for desk & sitting area for remote workers.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
