About This Home

12130 179th Street

A Home Built on History. Designed for Living. Some homes are built. This one was crafted - from the soul of a 19th century farmers barn. Nestled on 2.6 private acres, this extraordinary 5,000+ sq ft farmhouse estate is unlike anything on the market. Reclaimed solid box wood beams and original barn boards salvaged from a local 1890s barn are woven throughout the home, creating a level of craftsmanship and character that simply cannot be replicated. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the chef's kitchen features Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, French-door built-in oven, induction cooktop with vent fan, two dishwashers, prep sink, quartz countertops, custom slow-close shaker cabinetry, full-extension drawers, spice drawers and a large island with seating. The walk-in butler's pantry includes a dual-zone wine fridge, abundant cabinetry, and generous counter space. The dramatic two-story living room showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, hand-scraped hickory hardwood floors, and iconic reclaimed beams overhead. The first-floor primary suite offers peaceful property views, screened porch access, and a spa-inspired bath with oversized shower and jetted soaking tub. Finishing off the main level is a 2nd bedroom, bathroom and large laundry room. Upstairs, a 3rd bedroom and 2nd full bathroom, plus an open loft provides flexible living space for a studio, office, library, or playroom. The family room, 4th bedroom and 3rd full bathroom are in the fully finished English-style basement that brings in natural light and offers walk-out access to the backyard. Plus plenty of storage space. Outside, wrap-around porches overlook mature evergreens and perennial gardens, while the heated Amish-built screened gazebo creates a true three-season retreat. The 29x26 barn features original box beams, mortise wood pegs, loft space, 40-amp electric, and endless possibilities for a workshop, studio, or future guest suite. A heated-attached three-car garage with loft adds even more functionality. Recent updates include a new heat pump (2024), attic heat exchanger (2024), sump pump (2025), boiler components (2025), Anderson windows (2018), and whole-home Leaf Guard system. Conveniently located minutes from Metra access to downtown Chicago and I-355, this remarkable estate offers the perfect balance of privacy, character, and connection. This is not a home for everyone. It is absolutely the right home for someone. Welcome home!
