This French Country style mega mansion is currently under construction at 8 Kaleigh Court in South Barrington, IL. It will feature approximately 25,000 square feet of living space with 7 bedrooms and 9.5 bathrooms. It is being built by Joel Elias. Joel built 9 Brooke lane in South Barrington, which was featured on Teen Cribs and is currently listed at $4.9 million down from $8.85 million. I’m intrigued by the rendering and can’t wait to see it once it’s completed!

This can turn out really well or it can be an utter disaster. My money’s on the latter, simply because of the Barrington location.
It could fit well in Jersey too-next to the Gorga’s.
It could be a really interesting, well-done baronial manner. It will probably be a pathetic and tacky mess, but at least it will give us something to talk about.
I like the rendering. But I always like the rendering more than the finished product.
If I wanted to live there, currently on the market there is a 33,500 sq ft house on 10 acres for $7,750,000.00. Why would I want to spend over 9 mil more for a smaller house on much less land? And have to wait a year or two more for it to be ready.
I think the stables in the picture are nice. I wonder what the house looks like?
LOL!
can anyone tell me which of the four entrance areas is the main one??? or is this really just a big apartment complex?
This home would fit well in the English countryside. The room sizes from the ad link are impressive. I might end up liking this house…but, lets see what they do with the interior – i fear daniel may be correct.
Check out how much the 70 acre Hidden Ponds estate in Barrington sold for. And, if you;re looking at the Greater Chicagoland area, also check how much the Lansdowne estate eventually sold for.
The name “Windy City” must have been derived from the pricing habits of Chicago’s realtors.
