Description

Set on ~42.66 contiguous acres in McLean, Illinois, the Meier Estate is a privately held compound of extraordinary depth: a hand-crafted custom residence, a newly constructed 18,000+ SF shed facility with fully integrated living quarters, a private ~2 acre stocked fishing lake with turnkey lakeside amenities, and ~21.86 acres of permanent pastureland with two open-sided livestock shelters - all across two legally independent, separately metered parcels, each with direct driveway access to N. 400...Set on ~42.66 contiguous acres in McLean, Illinois, the Meier Estate is a privately held compound of extraordinary depth: a hand-crafted custom residence, a newly constructed 18,000+ SF shed facility with fully integrated living quarters, a private ~2 acre stocked fishing lake with turnkey lakeside amenities, and ~21.86 acres of permanent pastureland with two open-sided livestock shelters - all across two legally independent, separately metered parcels, each with direct driveway access to N. 400 East Road. The main residence - built entirely by Funk Construction & Woodworking - is a masterwork of custom craft. Brazilian Walnut hardwood floors, hand-carved walnut millwork, solid oak doors and trim throughout, a soaring Galena-inspired full-height brick fireplace, chef's kitchen with cherrywood cabinetry and granite countertops, formal dining room, two main-level offices (perfect for reconfiguring into additional bedrooms), 3 bedrooms, and 4 full baths. The fully finished walkout lower level delivers a second complete kitchen, hand-carved solid wood bar, billiards room, and recreation area with direct egress to a flagstone patio, pergola, water garden, hot tub hookup and professionally landscaped grounds. Brand new Geothermal HVAC system installed (2024) offering efficiency for years to come. Attached oversized 2-car garage with ample storage and workspace. The newly constructed 18,000+ SF shed facility (180'100', concrete floor, built 2023) is a standalone asset of rare utility - radiant heated concrete floors throughout with dual-zoned HVAC, a cold storage bay scaled for an indoor equestrian riding ring, multiple garage and work shop areas with storage bays, private en-suite office, and fully integrated 3 BD/3 BA living quarters with complete kitchen and living space for BnB, multi-generational living or staff/work-hands living quarters. Separately metered and on its own septic. Independent equipment and trailer access. The private ~2-acre fishing lake - stocked with largemouth bass, bluegill, and channel catfish - is anchored by a fully appointed lakeside cabin with kitchenette, Sonos-wired indoor/outdoor bar & entertainment areas, fish cleaning station, covered and paved patio picnic areas, firepit, and fishing docks. Combined across both structures: 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms with additional reconfiguration and accommodation potential. This estate speaks to a rare range of buyers: the private family compound or forever home buyer seeking irreplaceable craftsmanship and privacy; the equestrian buyer drawn to pastureland, facility at scale, and riding ring potential; the hospitality or short-term rental investor looking for a turnkey multi-unit income opportunity; the hobbyist, collector or business operator requiring serious secured square footage; or the multigenerational family seeking two fully independent, self-sufficient living structures on one contiguous estate. Private well sourced from underground aquifer. Professionally surveyed 2025 - copies available upon request. Combined taxes $34,294.46 (TY2025). The 4.80-acre homestead carries a Class 0040 Residential designation - a legal homesite status that cannot simply be recreated on AG farmland under current McLean County zoning; buyers are encouraged to verify directly with McLean County. Olympia CUSD 16. Minutes from Funks Grove Nature Preserve, Historic Route 66, and the newly completed bike and running trail connecting McLean directly to Bloomington-Normal as an extension of Constitution Trail. Drive-market accessible from Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis. Private appointment required. Contact listing agent for pricing.
