Mclean, IL 61754

Custom-built brick by brick by Funk Builders & Woodworking, this extraordinary ranch-style estate on nearly five private acres in McLean is a rare offering - defined by 36" doorframes, handcrafted solid oak trim, vaulted ceilings, Brazilian walnut floors, and travertine stone. A floor-to-ceiling Galena-inspired brick fireplace, flanked by sweeping arched windows, commands the great room framing the natural world just beyond the glass like a living painting throughout every season. Designed for true flexibility: three bedrooms across the main level and four full baths, plus two main-level office/den spaces that easily convert to additional bedrooms. The fully appointed lower level delivers a complete in-law suite - second chef's kitchen, hand-carved wood bar, recreation room, workshop, and walkout access. Live it as two separate living quarters or a single 6-7 bedroom home across two levels - ideal for multi-generational living. The main-level chef's kitchen features cherrywood cabinetry and island seating for six. Oversized two-car garage plus ample exterior parking. French doors open to a covered porch descending to a stone patio, pergola, water garden, and curated landscape with flowering and fruiting trees. Whitetail deer, bald eagles, and open grounds complete a setting worlds away from the ordinary - ~4.8 manicured acres with nothing but the quiet of nature. Recent updates: brand new geothermal HVAC, remodeled guest bath, new basement LVP flooring (2024-2025). Twenty minutes to Bloomington-Normal, equidistant in drive time between Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis and just miles from Funks Grove and the newly extended Constitution Trail connecting McLean to Bloomington, IL - 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.
