Are you ready for a new lifestyle, a new life, a new self? Wouldn't you prefer to escape today's craziness & own an estate with 5 acres in the most beautiful & serene town in Chicagoland, the only town requiring everyone to live on 5 acres? Prestigious Barrington Hills (BH).** This is the perfect time to buy in BH because prices should skyrocket as more & more people want to escape Chicago & suburbs for the peace, quiet, & security of BH.** An estate in BH has 3 elements: land, trees, & home. There are so few estates in BH offered at less than $1,845,000 that the scarcity of available estates will cause prices to surge.** Of course, not all BH estates are equal. We're so confident that you'll love & prefer 80 Meadow Hill--you've never been surrounded by so much joyous natural light in a home!--that we encourage you to compare it on the MLS to each of the few estates in this price range.** At 80 Meadow Hill, you won't hear planes, trains, trucks, & buses. You'll be 100s of feet away from neighbors. You'll be in your refuge away from the commotion, confusion, & chaos of today's unpredictable world.** This sanctuary inspired by America's greatest architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, sits on 5 rolling & elevated acres (30 ft above Bow Lane where you can see more than 1,000 ft in the distance; 10 ft above tranquil Meadow Hill Rd) & has 125 evergreens 75-ft tall along the perimeter.** Turn into your driveway, pass your custom-made iron gates that replicate gates Wright designed for his national landmark Wingspread estate in Racine, WI, & feel secure, confident, & proud of your achievements. Walk around your land & hear only singing birds.** Add to your land your family's favorite recreational facilities: a 3-hole, par 3 golf course, or a 650-ft driving range; basketball, tennis, & pickleball courts; a pool. You'll be a hero to your family & the envy of all your relatives, business associates, & friends.** Highlights: Brilliant Wrightian floor plan, 12-ft ceilings in several rooms, & walls of floor-to-ceiling (F2C) windows in each room to allow panoramic views of 100s or 1000s of feet into nature. The home includes 8-ft wide green marble fireplace in living room with cathedral ceiling. 8 x 8 brick fireplace wall in family room. Secluded primary bedroom & its ensuite spa bathroom have vaulted ceilings. Sunken whirlpool for 2.** You'll never feel at a loss for functional space (126 linear ft to hang clothes; 30 x 9 sq ft for sit-down dinners for guests looking out F2C windows) or aesthetic space (a 30-ft long art gallery; stand at kitchen sink & look 90 degrees right & see out 26 linear ft of windows).** As a special bonus, the owner will leave the custom-made art glass windows that replicate Wright's windows for his national landmark Unity Temple in Oak Park.** The owner has lived here 38 yrs. An architecture enthusiast & Wright afficionado, he has walked inside more than 100 homes Wright designed. He's retiring & moving from IL. He said, If I didn't love this
