For the hunting enthusiast who loves the preparation as much as the hunt itself, this is the kind of property you dream about. Set on 10.85 acres of timber and pasture in the heart of rural Illinois - just minutes from Clinton and a short drive to Bloomington or Decatur - this custom-built Doug Tilley home offers both craftsmanship and a lifestyle rooted in nature. Whether you're tracking whitetail deer, calling for wild turkey, or simply watching hummingbirds dance around the porch, this property provides a front-row seat to the best of the outdoors. Inside, the home is designed for both everyday living and gatherings. The kitchen is complete with abundant counter space, cabinets, and pantry, plus a spacious eating area with a window view to the deck. Step outside to enjoy both a covered section and an open-air section of the deck, accessible from two points inside the home - perfect for entertaining, grilling, or simply soaking in the views. From the foyer, the layout flows into a formal dining room and a great room anchored by a wood burning fireplace with gas log. An airy sunroom overlooks the backyard and the cut path through the timber leading to pasture ground, offering a natural extension of the living space. Three well-designed bedrooms each feature walk-in closets, with the primary suite boasting its own private bath and the other two sharing a hall bath. Downstairs, the 2,100 sq. ft. basement extends the possibilities. With 600 sq. ft. finished, you'll enjoy a family room, recreation space, and half bath with egress. There's ample opportunity to add one or two bedrooms, an office, or hobby room while still maintaining generous storage. Custom Tennessee Red Oak hardwood floors, Anderson casement windows, and a 48-foot covered porch showcase the home's quality. Recent updates include a new furnace and AC (2019), tankless water heater (2020), and water filtration system (2019). A deep 24x36 garage, generator hookup with safety panel, and capped gas line for a future whole-house generator add convenience and peace of mind. Outdoors, an ATV trail connects the home to the hay field, and a private road maintained through a shared homeowner fund ensures both access and privacy. From morning coffee on the porch to evenings entertaining on the deck or preparing for your next hunt, this property offers not just a home - but a lifestyle on 10.85 acres of rural Illinois beauty.
