This estate sale offers a rare opportunity to own a property with this much land, water, and space. A private retreat set on 16.5 scenic acres with Salt Creek meandering through the back, this versatile 5-bedroom, 3-bath home blends the charm of an original tri-level (circa 1971) with the modern comfort of a spacious ranch-style addition completed in 2001. Offering over 3,800 sq ft of finished living space, the home’s centerpiece is a custom kitchen with updated appliances and an impressive 15-foot island—perfect for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. The oversized primary suite features a private bath and large walk-in closet, while main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. Outdoor living shines with a 12-foot-wide covered deck and an equally large enclosed porch, both overlooking the approx. 1-acre stocked pond with dock, fish, and even a couple koi. A walk-out basement provides 2,700 sq ft of unfinished space for future bedrooms, a rec room, or a workshop. In addition to the attached 2-car garage, there are two outbuildings: a 32x40 pole barn with overhead door and concrete floors (no electric) and a 16x16 block-structured garage with overhead door and concrete floors (no electric), providing excellent storage and hobby space. Centrally located between Midland, MtPleasant & StLouis Note: Some interior trim work is still in progress.
