Description

This exceptional 228± acre property in Williamson County, Illinois offers a rare combination of luxury living, diverse habitat, income potential, and premier recreational opportunity. Featuring a stately Mississippi-Georgian style mansion set within a landscape of lakes, rolling grasslands, tillable acreage, and timber, this property is uniquely positioned for private estate living, recreation, or investment. The residence spans nearly 7,000 square feet and includes 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. Designed with architectural presence and craftsmanship in mind, the home welcomes you with a grand two-story foyer highlighted by a sweeping staircase, Swarovski crystal chandelier, and Alabama White Marble flooring. The main level offers a spacious living room, formal dining area, executive office suite, and a large kitchen with ample workspace for entertaining. Upstairs, the expansive master suite features a private bath, while two additional bedrooms include private bathrooms. A fourth bedroom and hall laundry/bath complete the second level. The fully finished walkout basement functions as separate living quarters, complete with a second kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, full bath, and generous living space—ideal for guests or extended family. Nearly 1,900 square feet of wraparound balcony space provides panoramic views overlooking the lakes and surrounding countryside. A circular driveway, spacious yard, and large garage with roll-up door complement the home’s exterior features. Beyond the residence, the land itself is equally impressive. Approximately 45± acres are in tillable production, offering income potential or future wildlife food plot opportunities. Two lakes totaling approximately 32± acres of water provide outstanding fishing, waterfowl habitat, and scenic value. An additional 78± acres of open grassland create expansive views and prime transition zones for wildlife. Timbered ridges and draws feature softwoods and mast-producing hardwoods, forming strong deer and turkey habitat. The diverse blend of open ground, water, and timber supports deer, turkey, and waterfowl hunting opportunities throughout the property. Adding to its long-term value and wildlife appeal, the tract adjoins the Crab Orchard Wildlife Refuge, expanding the surrounding protected habitat footprint. With a landscape this diverse, a residence of this scale, and adjacency to thousands of acres of refuge ground, properties of this caliber are seldom available — especially listed below appraised value. Whether you envision a private luxury estate, corporate retreat, event destination, or long-term land investment, this Williamson County property presents an extraordinary opportunity in Southern Illinois.
