Property Description
For those who love the outdoors and the lifestyle that comes with it, this 10.85-acre property is a dream come true. Set among timber and pasture just minutes from Clinton, Lincoln and a short drive to Bloomington or Decatur, this custom-built home blends quality craftsmanship with natural beauty. Enjoy whitetail deer and wild turkey right from your porch or take advantage of the ATV trail and cut paths leading through the property. Inside, the home is designed for comfort and gathering. The spacious kitchen offers ample counter space, cabinetry, and a pantry, plus a dining area overlooking the deck. The great room centers around a wood-burning fireplace with gas log, while a sunroom provides a relaxing view of the timber and pasture. The floor plan also includes a formal dining room and three bedrooms with walk-in closets, including a primary suite with private bath. The lower level offers 2,100 sq. ft. with 600 sq. ft. finished, featuring a family room, recreation area, and half bath with egress - plus potential for additional bedrooms or office space. Custom Tennessee Red Oak flooring, Andersen windows, and a 48-foot covered porch highlight the home's quality. Recent updates include a new furnace and A/C (2019), tankless water heater (2020), and water filtration system (2019). A deep 24x36 garage, generator hookup, and capped gas line for a future whole-house generator add convenience. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the privacy, ATV access, and shared private road maintenance. This property offers more than a home - it's a lifestyle surrounded by nature, recreation, and peace on 10.85 beautiful acres.
