Private Country Retreat on 8.24 Surveyed Acres Tucked away at the very end of a dead-end road and surrounded by mature trees on three sides, this private 8.24-acre surveyed property offers the perfect blend of seclusion, comfort, and convenience. Whether you're looking for a peaceful residence, hobby farm, equestrian property, or a lucrative Airbnb/short-term rental opportunity, this property checks all the boxes.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite countertops and a tile backsplash, while the spacious living room showcases an entire wall of windows overlooking the deck and picturesque acreage beyond. A Vermont Castings wood-burning stove provides warmth, character, and the ability to heat the entire home. The oversized primary suite offers a relaxing retreat with both a spa tub and separate shower. The walk-out basement provides incredible potential, with a fully finished bathroom and bonus room already completed, leaving the remaining space ready for your finishing touches. Enjoy breathtaking views from three separate decks positioned to capture every angle of the property. The partially fenced acreage includes pasture areas suitable for horses or other livestock, while abundant wildlife enhances the natural beauty and peaceful setting. Located just minutes from Walker's Bluff Casino & Resort, Crab Orchard Lake, Devils Kitchen, Lake Kincaid, Shawnee National Forest, wine trails, shopping, restaurants, and Southern Illinois University, this property offers the rare combination of privacy and accessibility.
