Description
Welcome to Meier Farms - a legacy estate of rare depth and quiet distinction on ~42.66 contiguous acres in McLean, Illinois, across two legally independent parcels, each with direct driveway access. The CROWN JEWEL: is an 18,000+ sq ft custom post-frame building by FBi Buildings - the midwest's premiere post frame builders (180'x100', 2023) - featuring radiant-heated sealed concrete floors, 20' clearance between cold storage and shop bays, separate metering (at transformer), dedicated septic, three (3) oversized washrooms, separate laundry and accessory quarters for guest, staff, or equine/ag operations use. Fully independent from the main residence. THE MAIN RESIDENCE: Built by Funk Construction & Woodworking, the main residence was made to last: Main level living with wide 36" doorways, handcrafted solid oak trim, a Galena-inspired brick fireplace, Brazilian walnut floors, travertine stone, and a chef's kitchen with cherrywood cabinetry and granite counters. Three bedrooms and four full baths, plus two main-level office/den spaces that easily convert to bedrooms. The Walkout Lower Level lives as a complete in-law suite - Second full kitchen, hand-carved solid wood bar, billiards room, and expansive living space with egress, onto a pergola-covered stone patio and water garden. Use the home and its finished lower level as flexible, separate living areas, or spread out across the full property. Well suited to multi-generational or recreational living. A new geothermal HVAC system (2024) delivers efficient year-round comfort. THE LAND is above equally exceptional: over 21 acres of income-producing permanent pasture across thoughtfully graded terrain, sustained by a private well drawing from aquifer. A stocked ~2-acre lake - largemouth bass, bluegill, channel catfish - conveys with a lakeside cabin, pavilion, and recreational amenities, bordered by a natural creek corridor and a tree-line of fruiting (apple orchard, grape vines) and flowering species. Electric-serviced with running water, and sound system. It's built for entertaining from day to night. Two open-sided steel shelters and a dual-pasture swing gate support rotational grazing or foaling operations. Bordered by private preservation areas and minutes from Funks Grove Nature Preserve, Historic Route 66, and the extended Constitution Trail. Ideally positioned between Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis with nearly equal drive times, and ~20 minutes south of Bloomington-Normal-home to State Farm, Rivian, ISU, Illinois Wesleyan, Carle BroMenn Medical Center, and OSF. Rural seclusion paired with quick access to major employers, healthcare, and schools. Offerings of this caliber are rare-contact the listing agent for a private showing.
