Stately 6BR Mississippi-Georgian Estate On 4+/- Acres With Event & Retreat Potential
6399 Pelican Lane Carbondale, IL 62901
Description
This stately two-story Mississippi-Georgian style estate offers a rare opportunity in Southern Illinois—combining architectural elegance, privacy, and versatile use potential on 4+/- acres, with additional acreage available for purchase. Surrounded by sweeping panoramic views and open countryside, the property presents an ideal setting for a private luxury residence, event venue, retreat destination, or short-term rental investment. The home spans nearly 7,000 square feet and features 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, designed to accommodate both everyday living and large gatherings. Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a grand two-story foyer highlighted by a sweeping staircase, a Swarovski crystal chandelier, and Alabama White Marble flooring—the same marble used in the United States Supreme Court building. The scale and craftsmanship immediately set the tone for the rest of the residence. The main level includes a spacious living room designed for entertaining, a formal dining area, a large kitchen with ample workspace, and an executive office suite. Upstairs, the second floor is anchored by an expansive master suite and bath, along with two additional bedrooms featuring private baths, a fourth bedroom, and a hall laundry and bath area. Each level is thoughtfully arranged to balance openness with privacy. The walkout basement functions as a fully independent living space, complete with a second kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, a hall bath, and a large living area. This layout creates flexibility for extended family, guests, or potential rental use. Outdoor living is equally impressive. Nearly 1,900 square feet of wraparound balcony space spans two levels, offering elevated views of the surrounding landscape and water. The setting provides daily opportunities to enjoy sunrises, sunsets, and the quiet beauty of Southern Illinois countryside. A circular drive, spacious yard, and oversized garage with a large roll-up door complete the exterior improvements. Whether envisioned as a private estate, wedding venue, corporate retreat, or income-producing property, this home offers scale, character, and versatility rarely found in the region. With additional acreage available, the opportunity exists to further expand privacy or enhance development potential.
