According to Realtor.com, the Aurora home on St. Andrews Lane was built in 2007 on a 1.29-acre lot. At 7,700 square feet, the home has five bedrooms, five full and two half bathrooms and a three-car garage.

The home has a prime location in the the gated Barrington Estates neighborhood overlooking the 1st Hole of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, the listing notes. The French Provincial style home lends to an old world fairytale castle complete with a dark wood arched front door, stone facade, crisscross hatched windows and hexagonal rotunda. Not to mention four intricately detailed fireplaces inside.

Upon entering, as seen in photos, the foyer is quite grand with a high ceiling and a sweeping staircase. Beautiful details include hardwood floors, pillars, arches, chandeliers, sconces and painted ceilings that certainly make you forget you’re in Northeast Ohio.

The kitchen features custom cabinetry made to look like it came straight from France. It even has an aged look to it. There are also high-end appliances and a center island.

The more formal rooms in the home (dining, living, great room and office) are also a sight to see with the aforementioned fireplaces, high ceilings, built-ins, lots of windows and other details.

Outside there’s a deck and patio perfect for al fresco dining, the listing suggests.

The primary suite includes a large bedroom with a coffered ceiling and an en suite bathroom featuring two vanities separated by a large soaking tub, a walk-in shower and water closet. There’s also a private balcony, the listing notes.
