About this home
Imagine waking up to the sound of the water, coffee in hand, watching the morning light move across the lake. That's the everyday reality at 470 Mica Point Road. Tucked away on the private shores of Swains Lake in Barrington, this beautifully reimagined modern lake house is the kind of place that slows you down in the best possible way. Inside, every detail has been considered. The updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a gas stove flows into a dining room and porch wrapped in a wall of windows, where the lake is always in view. On cooler evenings, the living room's wood stove and beautiful stone hearth make it nearly impossible to leave. A charming guest cabin with a loft bedroom, living room, kitchenette, and half bath means there's always room for the people you want to share it with. Step outside and the lake life really begins. A deck and patio with an outdoor kitchen and hot tub make entertaining effortless, and natural details like a bar-top built right into one of the boulders on the property give the space a character that feels truly one of a kind. The landscaping is lush and intentional, embracing the natural surroundings while keeping the atmosphere serene and private. Down at the water's edge, your owned frontage on Swains Lake is entirely yours, with no public beach in sight. Whether you're casting a line, launching a kayak, or simply sitting by the water and letting the world quiet down, this stretch of shoreline is your own private escape. Some places you visit. This is one you never want to leave. Schedule your private showing today!
