Just Priced Reduced!!! Welcome Home to this Barrington Classic! Built in 1861, just a few years after the establishment of the village, this is one of Barrington's first residences.

Located on over five acres with majestic oak trees, the property backs up to conservation land protected from future development. Nature lovers will fall in love. Walk up to the house and the first thing you will notice is the large porch that wraps around three sides of the house and has five doors into the house.
