Set along an unparalleled 450 feet of private shoreline on Hawley Lake, this 12,000-square-foot estate represents one of the most significant lakefront offerings in Barrington Hills. Offered for the first time, the residence was custom built by its original owner and reflects a level of scale, craftsmanship, and setting rarely found in today's market.
