PRICED REDUCED!! ADDITIONAL PURCHASE OPTION OF THE HOME SITE, PASTURES, AND APPR4OXIMATELY 50 ACRES OF $850,000 (SEE AERIAL PHOTO FOR THE APPROXIMATE BOUNDARY FOR THIS OPTION) I don't know really where to start with this property as there is so much to talk about. From the custom timber frame home, variety of abundant wildlife, pasture paddock area and the list goes on as to what makes this property a true country oasis. Let me start with the house which boasts approximately 5,800 square feet of room, 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. The outside is impressive enough on its own with the full brick and "Chilton" rustic cut stone highlighted maintenance free exterior and copper colored tile shaped anodized aluminum roof which is set on a hill that allows for panoramic views from every direction and provides beautiful sunrise views from the large deck overlooking the pond or sunset views from the large covered porch. Once you walk through the front door to the main level, you will immediately be taken aside by the full custom white pine timber frame construction that can be seen not only in the vaulted great and dining rooms but throughout the house.  Structural insulated panels have been set on the outside of the timbers to allow for full exposure of the interior timbers. After you take that all in (which is going to take some time) your eye will gravitate towards the 2 story "Arkansas Wild Cherry" rustic cut stone see through fireplace, reclaimed maple gym floor with black walnut edging and open kitchen area with custom walnut/butternut with stained glass panel doors. Besides the great room, dining room and kitchen, the main floor also consists of a master bedroom with private bath and deck and access to a shared handicapped bathroom with another bedroom, sun room, laundry room, another 1/2 bathroom, built in hallway pantry, and access to the large 28' x 32' x 13' high dual heated garage, stairway to the bonus room over the garage and large deck overlooking the pond and CRP prairie. The main level also has in-floor heating throughout. Walking up the curved staircase to the upper loft level there is an open foyer area connecting the 3 bedrooms, a full bath with ocean themed custom tile work, two lofts and overlooks the main floor great room. Going downstairs to the walk out in floor heated lower level, there is another fireplace made from hand split field stone fireplace, two finished bedrooms, sunroom, a sauna/shower/bathroom is partially finished and waiting for your own custom work, an open large great room is unfinished and waiting for you to turn it into a room of your dreams. Heating and cooling for the house are achieved primarily from the top of the line geothermal system and separate heating/cooling furnaces for two of the loft bedrooms and bonus room over the garage. So much more to say in regards to the house and a full list of amenities is available. Now to the land which is no slouch in it of itself. The mixture of habitat is very diverse and with that, it's no surprise that a lot of wildlife call this property home. There are approximately 37 acres of CRP prairie dotted with restored wetlands established with the mid-contract maintenance mowing already completed which provides approximately $4,200 in annual income. Various wooded edges are mixed in with the CRP area provide great travel corridors to and from bedding areas to adjacent crop fields.  To the north, there is a large thick seclusion bedding area that attracts deer from around the area and with an adjacent 40 acres of state-owned landlocked land next to the parcel, there are multiple stand sites and/or area to hunt deer, waterfowl, pheasants and turkeys. This is a true multi-species property and it's all literally right out your back door. Interested in having some animals, gardening or having your own orchard?  From the fenced in established pasture/paddock area with watering system in place, insulated with electric chicken coop, large fenced garden area with custom garden shed, and established orchard with assorted apple, pear, plum and cherry trees,  this property is set to accommodate all of the above.  There is also a large 50' x 45' x 14' high shed with electrical service that can be finished off to accommodate all of your farm toys or other needs. The property also has an extra building eligibility earmarked for the south side of the property for a potential future building site. There is so much more to say about the property that words just can't capture so give me a call to schedule your private showing of this rare country estate!
