Property Description
Custom-built brick by brick by Funk Construction & Woodworking, this extraordinary ranch-style estate on nearly five private acres in McLean, Illinois is a rare offering defined by 36" doorframes, handcrafted solid oak trim, soaring vaulted ceilings, Brazilian walnut hardwood floors, and travertine stone - craftsmanship and character simply unavailable in today's new construction. A floor-to-ceiling Galena-inspired brick fireplace commands the great room with quiet authority. Flanked by sweeping arched windows, it frames the natural world just beyond the glass like a living painting - drawing the outside in and reminding you, in every season, exactly where you are. It is the kind of architectural centerpiece designed not to be replicated, but to endure. Extra-wide hallways move with the ease and generosity of a home genuinely built for living - for large gatherings, muddy boots after a morning ride, and the kind of everyday grace that only thoughtful construction provides. This is not a home that asks you to compromise. It was built knowing its owner never would. Three bedrooms, four full baths, two main-level office and den spaces, and an oversized two-car garage with up to 20 exterior parking spaces offer flexibility that is genuinely unmatched at this price point. The main-level chef's kitchen features rich cherrywood cabinetry and island seating for six. The fully appointed lower level delivers a second chef's kitchen, hand-carved solid wood bar, recreation room, workshop, and walkout access - equally suited for entertaining or multi-generational living. French doors open to a covered porch with stone-based columns and beadboard ceiling, descending to an artisan crafted stone patio, pergola, pond, and curated gardens with flowering trees. Beyond, whitetail deer, bald eagles, and open grounds complete a setting that feels worlds away from the ordinary. Recent updates include a new geothermal HVAC system, fully remodeled guest bath, new basement vinyl flooring, and professional survey - all completed 2024-2025. Located 20 minutes from Bloomington-Normal and 45 minutes to Champaign-Urbana, positioned nearly equidistant between Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis, and just miles from Funks Grove and the newly extended Constitution Trail connecting McLean to Bloomington - rural seclusion with immediate access to major employment, top-rated schools and universities, healthcare, and infrastructure. Offerings of this caliber are extraordinarily rare. Contact the listing agent for a private showing.
