This vast European Country property in Barrington Hills, Illinois includes 70 acres of land as well as a superb 11-year-old brick and stone manor that flaunts unmatched luxury and sophistication. The estate goes by the name of Hidden Ponds – a name that was not chosen randomly. Indeed, the property features a number of concealed ponds, a beautiful lake and an English Pub with its own wine cellar.
The residence itself boasts 30,000 square feet of space and impresses with a large fireplace, Brazilian hardwood floors and a Gentleman’s library with a hidden panel that offers access to a stunning master suite. Other highlights include a formal dining hall, a gourmet kitchen, a waterfall, a lap pool, a spa, a state-of-the-art gymnasium and a massage room. There’s also an elevator that ensures easy access to all floors, a garage that’s large enough for a collector, and three golf greens.
The price for all of this magnificence? No more than $18.7 million.
Oh, just a casual 30,000 square feet with hidden ponds and a secret library panel—because who doesn’t need a little mystery with their morning coffee? And $18.7 million? Practically a steal for this level of “modest” luxury.
Absolutely! This estate blends grand luxury with unique charm, making it a truly special find in Barrington Hills. The secret library and ponds add that perfect touch of intrigue to everyday living.
