Cook, US
Oversized lot just 1 mile from downtown Barrington, offering a rare opportunity in a highly desirable location. Enjoy convenient access to Blue Ribbon Grove Avenue School, nearby parks, Metra train, restaurants, and local shops-all within walking distance. The setting alone makes this property a standout for anyone looking to invest in a strong, established community. The home features 3 bedrooms and 1 bath with hardwood floors running throughout. The kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, highlighted by a Thermador range and breakfast bar. Additional updates include newer washer and dryer, siding, windows, and a water conditioning system. A large deck overlooks a deep backyard with mature trees and a fire pit, providing a great outdoor footprint with plenty of space to reimagine. That said, the home is in rough condition and requires significant renovation. It is being sold strictly as-is, and buyers should be prepared for a full rehab. This is not a cosmetic project-it's a true value-add opportunity. Ideal for investors, builders, or buyers looking to create their own vision, the oversized lot and prime location offer strong upside potential. Whether you're looking to renovate, expand, or rebuild, this property presents a chance to capitalize on a sought-after Barrington location with long-term value.
