Property Description
Private Mountaintop Estate | 5 Bedrooms | 11.71 Acres with Breathtaking Views of Marion Perched high above downtown Marion on one of the highest homesites in the area, this stunning 2-story estate home offers unmatched privacy and panoramic views on 11.71 acres of pristine mountaintop land. Accessed by a picturesque paved private drive, the property borders the beautiful Mount Ida Wilderness Park — a 36-acre city preserve featuring a moderate-to-strenuous one-mile hiking trail that leads to sweeping overlooks of Short Off Mountain and downtown Marion. This rare setting delivers true privacy while placing you just minutes from town amenities. Inside, the home is designed for both elegant living and effortless enjoyment of the mountain setting. The main level features: A fully equipped kitchen with breakfast nook; Formal dining room; Spacious great room with walls of windows offering dramatic front-to-rear views and a cozy fireplace; Luxurious primary suite with its own fireplace, private bath with jetted tub, and access to a screened covered deck. The great room opens onto a massive deck perfect for entertaining while soaking in the expansive views of Marion below. Upstairs, you’ll find four additional bedrooms and 2 full baths. One bedroom is large enough to serve as a secondary primary suite (with bathroom and walk in closet) and features its own private balcony deck. This is truly a one-of-a-kind mountain estate — combining privacy, spectacular long-range views, direct access to hiking trails, and generous living space in a peaceful, elevated setting. If you’re looking for a private mountaintop retreat with room to breathe and views that never get old, this exceptional property deserves your attention. Main Street, Marion (with all of the downtown amenities such as restaurants, the Peavine Walking Trail, the Farmers Market, etc) is approximately .3 miles away!
