Barrington Hills Homes - A Diverse Choice in Real Estate

Barrington Hills, long renowned for being the Equestrian location, has a more diverse choice than buyers might imagine.

The majority of Barrington Hills properties are located on 5 acre lots, there are some with larger parcels of land too, but there are also some small areas with 1 acre lots and even a subdivision of duplexes and homes on lot sizes about 0.2 of an acre. If you are considering Barrington Hills for your next home here a few of the options open to you:

Paganica of Barrington Hills - Remember we talked about duplexes? Well this is where you will find them, just a few. Paganica is not a huge subdivision but it is very unique for Barrington Hills. You will not be able to bring horses here! The majority of homes are single family with quarter acre lots or there-about and the sizes are between 1750 and 3000 square feet.

Pondgate Farms - Need space for horses but also a budget friendly home, consider Pondgate Farms. Less than ten years old, this subdivision was built with a lower budget in mind. Was it? No not really but that's the way I look at it. The houses have great sized rooms, with up to 5500 square feet and with the Barrington Hills standard 5 acre lot, there's room for paddocks, out buildings and fencing for your horses. At $800,00 it's a pretty good price for a big house with 5 acres even if you don't need a lot for equestrian purposes.

Creekside Meadows - Looking for new construction? One of Barrington Hills rare events. Not only is this new construction but it is a Planned Unit Development - PUD. The vast majority of homes built in Barrington Hills are custom builds on indivisual lots. Creekside Meadows started just before the real estate market collapsed and therefore was kind of a non starter. There are only 3 homes built, although many of the lots are owned. One of the 3 homes is already foreclosed on and you can buy it for less than $1 million. However I hope you have really deep pockets as the real estate taxes are an incredible $51,828 a year. Original prices here were around $3 Million.

Barrington Hills real estate choices are diverse, but the village is known for horses and luxury.
