What to check on a Barrington Hills property
Acreage and zoning
New construction has needed 5 acres since 1963. Confirm the recorded lot size, the zoning district and what it allows before you plan a barn, an addition or a lot split.
Horses and trails
The Riding Club of Barrington Hills, formed in 1937, maintains bridle paths across the village, and the village counts more than 150 miles of private and public trails. Ask whether a property connects to the trail system and what easements are recorded.
Wells, septic and outbuildings
Estate lots often have their own utilities and older outbuildings. Order inspections for the well, septic, barn and fencing, not only the house.
