Prepare to be wowed by this updated ranch on 1+ acre in Fairhaven, overlooking a pond and adjacent to Cuba Marsh Forest Preserve. This 3 bed, 2.5 bath home with a full finished basement has been renovated to perfection. The living room features built-ins, a large picture window overlooking the pond and a gas-log fireplace with rustic wood mantle and whitewashed brick. The kitchen was expanded in 2024 to include a large island, shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. The main floor laundry and mud room is ideal as a family drop zone off the 2.5 car attached garage and is a pet-friendly zone with access to the yard. The finished basement has a great family/rec space, office or exercise room and powder room. The mechanical area and crawl space are great for storage. Enjoy these long summer nights on the stone patio with built-in gazebo, surrounded by nature. This location makes you feel miles away yet you are just minutes to downtown Barrington, Metra, shopping, restaurants, entertainment, parks, playgrounds, and award-winning Barrington schools. All new in last few years: washer/dryer, water softener, garage door opener and springs, front walkway, interior doors, bathrooms, windows, HVAC.
