Chicago Northern Illinois Suburbs Equestrian Estates - Horses First
There is no doubt that one of the finest suburbs in Northern Illinois and Chicago to offer Equestrian Estates is Barrington Hills. The typical lot size in Barrington Hills Illinois is 5 acres which provides space for one or two horses. There are also many homes on lot sizes of about 10 acres which gives a little more flexibility in overall design of your horse property. More paddocks-stables-pastures. If you need more acreage the choice is more limited and you might have to forgo some of your wants and needs in favor of your horses-after all it's horses first!
Property ages in Barrington Hills IL vary with some older than 100 years and many built in the mid 1900's and even new construction. There is certainly a lot to choose from but not all will have ready to go horse facilities. Although zoned for horses not all owners have them. You might need to find the perfect home and then build your own fences-stables-barns. There are some very well established estates with older homes-you might consider buying the estate-knocking down the house to build a new one and you'll have a fantastic Illinois Equestrian Estate you'll certainly be proud of.
Barrington Hills Illinois is home to the Barrington Hills Polo Club and has many riding trails. The trails are maintained by the private property owners because the trails are indeed on private land.
Barrington Hills in Northern Illinois is an upscale village and property prices might be too high for you. Maybe you are more flexible about location as long as you are in Northern Illinois or the Suburbs of Chicago. Perhaps you need something that is not available in Barrington and are open to looking in other areas.
