Welcome to Meier Farms, a rare estate where the only limit is your imagination. Spanning approximately 42.66 contiguous acres in unincorporated McLean County, this multi-generational property is composed of two legally independent parcels, each with its own direct road access, offering exceptional flexibility for family, hospitality, or investment. The Crown JewelCommanding the grounds is a remarkable 18,000+ sq ft custom building (180' x 100', completed 2023) by the Midwest's premier post-frame builders. Twenty-foot clearances define both the cold storage and shop bays, while radiant-heated concrete floors keep the shop with en-suite office space comfortable and operable in every season. Within, first-floor living quarters are finished in new luxury vinyl plank and include three full bathrooms and a dedicated laundry room. Upstairs, a thoughtfully crafted second level offers guest suites and recreation space. Room to work, room to eat & sleep and room to enjoy, the perfect retreat! Separately metered and served by its own septic system, this building stands fully independent of the main residence. The Main Residence was custombuilt brick by brick by Funk Construction & Woodworking, and crafted for permanence. Two-story vaulted ceilings soar above the great room, where a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning brick fireplace is framed by oversized windows that pour natural light across Brazilian walnut floors. Handcrafted solid oak trim, wide hallways, and 36" doorways speak to the care in every detail. The chef's kitchen is a true gathering place, appointed with travertine stone flooring, cherrywood cabinetry, granite counters, and a generous center island with breakfast bar seating for six. A butler's pantry with abundant shelving completes the space. Designed for effortless single-level living, the ranch-style home offers four bedrooms and four full baths across two levels. A main-level office or den converts easily to a fifth bedroom, or the lower level can serve as a private in-law suite. That fully appointed walkout lower level is an entertainer's retreat in its own right, featuring a second chef's kitchen, hand-carved wood bar, recreation room, workshop, and expansive living and storage space. Step outside to a pergola-covered stone patio with a tranquil water garden and hot tub hookup, overlooking rolling pasture and a private lake. A brand-new geothermal HVAC system (2024) provides efficient year-round comfort and lasting peace of mind. An oversized attached two-car garage with generous work and storage space, along with ample driveway parking, rounds out the residence. The LandThe grounds are as exceptional as the structures. More than 21 acres of income-producing permanent pasture rest on thoughtfully graded terrain, sustained by an abundant private well. Multiple grazing zones connected by swing gates allow true rotational grazing. At the heart of the property lies a stocked ~2-acre fishing lake, home to largemouth bass, bluegill, and channel catfish, conveying with a lakeside cabin, pavilion, and recreational amenities. Fruit and flowering tree lines, apple trees, and grapevines frame the landscape, while white-tailed deer, quail, pheasant, and waterfowl make it their home. With electric service, running water, and hardwired sound throughout, the setting is made for entertaining from sunrise well into the evening. An estate of this scope and caliber is seldom offered.
