226. Open Houses in Barrington Sunday, August 26, 2012
If you feel like checking out homes for sale in the Barrington area this weekend, there are about 20 open houses scheduled for tomorrow, Sunday, August 26th. Our pick for one of the coolest houses open tomorrow is this brand new listing at 150 Braymore Court in Barrington’s Braymore Hills neighborhood where we’re welcoming visitors tomorrow from 1 to 4 p.m.
Tomorrow’s a great day to check out Braymore, too, because the community is hosting their annual end-of-summer party so you might see the neighbors out and about when you swing by. If you love the feel of French-inspired construction, you’ll really appreciate the view of 150 Braymore from the curb.
The 5,425 square foot, 4 bedroom, 4.2 bath home, listed at $1,050,000, has a prime cul-de-sac location. Arched entryways, windows and beautiful woodwork throughout the first floor really make this property stand out from the rest.
It features ample living space upstairs with 4 bedrooms, including a very large master, plus a bonus room on the second level.
And you’ll want to linger in the English and very bright lower level where they have a home theater with movie screen and surround sound.
This lower level also has game area plus another separate space for relaxing around a fireplace near the lower level wet bar.
If you have any questions about this property, please feel free to email me at Liz@365Barrington.com or call 847-691-3150. If you’re curious and would like to learn more about this property, we hope to see you at tomorrow’s open house. To get to the property, just take Barrington Road south of Dundee. Go east on Braymore, right (or south) on South Braymore and turn right on Braymore Court. You’ll find 150 S. Braymore Court at the end of the cul-de-sac on the right. The open houses starts at 1 p.m., ends at 4 p.m. and we would love to personally show you all this home has to offer!
In addition to 150 Braymore, here are the following addresses with open houses scheduled for Sunday, August 26th. The times vary, so we’ve outlined them by time and are also including the full listing details and photos for your convenience below. If you visit any open houses this weekend, be sure to tell them 365 Barrington sent you 😉 and we’d love it if you’d drop us a note at Liz@365Barrington.com and let us know your favorites after the fact. Happy house hunting and here you go……

359. An Opportunity of Olympic Proportions
If you’re like me, you LOVE looking at properties for sale and considering the possibility of finding a new place to call home. Well, it’s springtime in Barrington and the weekend open house activity is heating up. There’s a great property that’s open in South Barrington this afternoon that’s only a few years old, has that open floor plan that everyone loves and is also a “sneeze away” from I-90, O’Hare Airport and downtown Chicago.
This home is conveniently close to EVERYTHING, so why not come check it out from 1-4PM TODAY, Saturday, March 26th. Take a drive by and pop inside if you want to see more. My mom, Suzanne Luby, will be the host and I promise she doesn’t bite … unless you color on the walls ;).…

352. Barrington House Talk – 2011 Market Realities
In “Barrington House Talk” last week, I opened things up for your questions. We received several great questions about the Barrington real estate market, and we’ll answer them all in the coming weeks here at 365Barrington.com. But today I’m going to tackle the question that’s most difficult because it’s a subject that can be tough to talk about.
Mike from North Barrington asks,
“What is the current Foreclosure rate in Barrington and how does that compare to the numbers nationally?”
It’s a great question, Mike. I’d like to say the numbers from MRED, our local MLS, are encouraging, but the data paints a different picture. The short sale and foreclosure statistics for Barrington are a real estate reality we have to know and face to help accelerate our local market recovery.…
