Property Description
This rural gem just southwest of Benton, Illinois is being offered at online-only auction. The 2,694 sq ft brick building sits on 1.23 peaceful acres and has served as a gathering space with open potential for new use. It features a full basement, wood and carpeted flooring, central air, propane forced-air heat, and a durable metal roof. The structure is brick with frame construction, connected to rural water and a private septic system. With paved road frontage and no use restrictions noted, it's ideal for business, ministry, retreat space, or creative residential conversion. The flexible layout includes multiple rooms, including an L-shaped classroom and infant care area, and is highlighted by a mural painted by Dom Ross behind the baptismal. Its quiet location feels removed yet remains close to town—offering convenience and privacy. Whether you're looking to work, host, serve, or simply create something meaningful, this property is a unique find ready for its next chapter. Auction ends June 12, 2025. Showings by appointment.
