Quality 45 Acre Turnkey Horse Farm in Illinois

Description

Scenic slightly rolling pastures, small wooded areas and wildlife habitat flank this dream of a horse farm, just a couple hours from St. Louis, Indianapolis, Chicago and Louisville. A 21 stall Morton barn with L shaped addition make up the center of attraction, with wide concrete aisles, h/c water washstall, tackroom, feedroom and attractive heated lounge/office with 1/2 bath. The barn also has a nice 600 sq ft modern apartment 1 bd/bath suitable for employees or relatives. 3 large drylots and 5 pastures utilize the land to its fullest, with two arenas, 82 x150 indoor, lighted Coverall building, and 100 x 200 outdoor arena, both with good footing. Used as a board/train/breeding facility for warmbloods, the stalls are all 12 x12 or larger, with two foaling stalls and two stallion stalls. The house is 2460 sq ft of convenient easy care, 4 bdrm or 3 plus office, 3 full baths, wood floors, large bedrooms and lots of details like crown molding and alcoves. Both original barn and house were built in 1998-9 with the addition and area built in 2006-7. If that is not enough, there is a maturing orchard with apples, pears and more, and a charming fenced garden. One mile from a state park with trail ridng, yet only 8 miles to town, Charleston, a nice university town and 8 miles the other way to I-70. A great place to call home, raise kids and horses, and/or build your equestrian business.
