About This Property
A note from the sellers: Welcome to 221 Coolidge Ave. We have loved
living in our authentic Sears Craftsman home here in the Historic
Overlay District of the village of Barrington. A leisurely stroll
around our neighborhood will bring you in contact with numerous
beautiful, sometimes stately, historic homes, many built as far
back as the 1860s. This home carries with it some history of its
own. Irving Schumann was the original builder of this house. His
name appears on the actual bill of lading, which is framed on the
dining room wall. Mr. & Mrs. Schumann lived here, as well - with
all 8 of their children. In the 1920s, Mr. Schumann was the master
carpenter for the Chicago & Northwestern Railway, and was
responsible for constructing the many station houses all along the
northwest route of the railroad line - from just outside Chicago,
all the way to Harvard, IL. Schumann would have had a hand in the
constructing, and maintaining the old Barrington railroad station
house, which was once located where Station Street meets the
commuter railroad tracks. That station house building was moved to
Barrington's Ice House Mall in 1978 and soon became Chessie's
Restaurant (still in operation today, located in back of the
Jewel-Osco).The location of our home is incredible. Hough Street
Elementary School is a mere 2-blocks away, near the corner of Lill
Street and Lincoln Avenue. Elementary-aged children won't have to
cross any busy streets when walking to the school. Barrington High
School is a little over a half-mile walk from our home, on
Lake-Cook Road (Main Street), west of Dundee Avenue. Every May, the
Barrington Arts Festival is held 3-blocks away on Cook Street. Over
100 artists are present at this event, some traveling quite far to
exhibit at the festival. There's also live music and some great
food. That same extended weekend, the Barrington Memorial Day
Parade proceeds from Lake-Cook Road south onto Dundee Avenue, at
the western edge of our block, and finishes on the grounds of the
Evergreen Cemetery. Our neighborhood residents always congregate at
the end of our block, and enjoy the multiple marching bands and
parading veterans as they pass by our street. The 4th of July
parade passes down Lake-Cook Road, just 4 blocks away, and the
Barrington High School Homecoming Parade uses that same route. At
Christmas time, Santa and his sleigh pull to a stop at the
intersection of Coolidge and Lill Street, for families to enjoy.
The Jewel-Osco is also 4-blocks away, and there are more than a
dozen eateries within a 6-blocks of this home. Heinen's Grocery
store is a must shop. It's the store where the employees actually
know your name, and treat you like family. And of course, the
historic Catlow Theater is also 4-blocks away - a perfect
destination for a date night movie. For some 'getting back to
nature' time, there's no better place to visit than Citizen's Park
and the Cuba Marsh near the intersection of Route 14 and Lake
Zurich Road (in back of the fantastic public library). There,
you'll find a few miles of beautiful nature tails and wetlands. We
really don't want to leave 221 Coolidge Avenue, but a job move in
another city calls. We'll miss our cozy Sears home, especially on
warm days when we'd sit on our front porch and watch the world go
by, but we hope that you will enjoy your new home.
