Lake Barrington, IL 60010

A Private Hilltop Retreat of Modern Luxury, Timeless Charm, and Everyday Escape. Welcome to 25660 N Countryside Drive-a home where elevated living meets the quiet magic of nature. Perfectly perched on a secluded 1-acre hilltop in an intimate cul-de-sac and surrounded by lush woodlands, this stunning five-bedroom residence is more than a home-it's a destination. Here, modern elegance, comfort, and serenity come together to create the ultimate everyday escape. From the moment you step onto the charming front porch, you'll feel the difference. Manicured landscaping, mature trees, and a sense of calm set the tone for what's inside. Soaring ceilings and walls of windows flood the home with natural light, dancing across the beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout the entire house (2023) and framing serene views in every direction. The staircase has been updated with rod iron spindles (2023), adding a touch of architectural elegance. Two inviting fireplaces offer warmth and character throughout the seasons, while the thoughtfully overhauled gourmet kitchen (2023)-featuring refaced and extended cabinetry, new countertops and backsplash, a custom stove range, and all-new appliances (except the double oven)-serves as the true heart of the home. Upstairs, function meets style with a newly relocated laundry room (2024), complemented by a flexible laundry/playroom combo for added versatility. Two bedrooms were upgraded in 2023 with hardwood flooring to match the rest of the home, and new blackout blinds were added throughout the second floor, while wood blinds add sophistication to the main-level office. Every detail has been considered-including wallpaper accents in the office and main-level restroom (2023), all-new ceiling fans throughout the home, and upgraded lighting fixtures on the first floor. PLUS -the laundry/playroom on the 2nd floor was originally a bedroom and can easily be converted back, offering the option of a sixth bedroom if desired. The spacious walk-out basement expands your living and entertaining possibilities with room for movie nights, gatherings, or a future in-law suite. A spa-inspired primary bath renovation (2022) creates a private sanctuary with refined, luxurious finishes that make everyday routines feel indulgent. This residence has been impeccably updated with over $100,000 in enhancements blending style and substance. In addition to the major kitchen renovation, recent updates include a 2025 epoxy-coated garage floor, a leveled and enclosed backyard playset area (2025), and new exterior wood stairs leading to the basement patio (2025). Enjoy lasting peace of mind with a whole-house generator, newer roof (2019), furnace, A/C, water heater, and advanced water filtration system. Additional features include a professionally tuckpointed fireplace (2021), well line/pump/tank replacement (2020), full interior painting (2023-2025), invisible fencing, fire sprinklers throughout, and energy-efficient windows (2002). Located within the highly sought-after Barrington School District and just minutes from downtown Barrington, top-rated dining, shopping, and major commuter routes, this home offers both seclusion and accessibility in perfect balance. All that's left to do is turn the key and start living your dream. Call today to make it yours. Welcome home.
