Barrington is typically rich folk country. South Barrington has large, expensive homes as does Barrington Hills...only the latter is also known as 'horse country' since a lot of them have horse farms. Both are old areas so there is quite a mix of home variety but most examples are around 1M+. For instance, you can get this:

http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/20.../5090037_zpid/

There are some 500-700k homes but the amount you'd pay in taxes (mostly because of the large lots) and the amount of reno you'd have to do wouldn't make it worth it IMO. Plus there is nothing really around there (gas, grocery, etc...) and you'll probably hit a deer every other day.
