Rev up your engines and grab your checkbooks! Tony Stewart, a beloved figure in NASCAR circles and fondly referred to as “Smoke” by his devoted fans, is relaunching his expansive Indiana ranch onto the real estate market. Situated on the outskirts of his picturesque hometown of Columbus, just an hour’s drive from  Indianapolis, this luxurious property was originally listed for a substantial $30 million in 2022 but is now back with a significantly reduced price tag of $22.5 million.

A lengthy driveway passes through a covered bridge.

Stewart acquired the land in the early 2000s, demolishing an existing dwelling to create the renowned “Hidden Hollow Ranch,” completed in 2011. The centerpiece is a nearly 20,000-square-foot home constructed from lodge pole pine sourced from the Northern Rockies. Boasting six bedrooms and eleven bathrooms, this estate sits on over 400 acres of land featuring a nine-acre stocked lake, ideal for bass fishing. Additionally, as a licensed hunting preserve, the property offers ample opportunities for elk, deer, and turkey hunting amidst its scenic grounds.

Having spent two decades as a professional NASCAR driver, 52-year-old Stewart retired following the 2016 season, boasting three Cup Series championships and earning induction into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2020. Currently, he co-owns the Stewart-Haas  Racing team alongside industrialist Gene Haas. Additionally, Stewart is overseeing the fielding of a Top Fuel dragster for his wife, California-𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 racer Leah Pruett, who is taking a break from the 2024 season to focus on starting a family.

Double front doors provide access to the stone and pine structure.

Regarding his custom-designed residence, Stewart affectionately refers to it as his “dream home.” He has previously expressed his fondness for every corner of the property, stating, “There is always something to do… whether it’s hunting and fishing, off-roading, or simply enjoying the serene nights on the porch under the stars. It offers the perfect blend of entertainment and relaxation.”

A wood bridge flows into a soaring great room

Upon arrival, guests are greeted by walls and gates, followed by a lengthy driveway that traverses a covered bridge before branching into a circular drive, leading to a porte-cochère adorned with a magnificent deer-antler chandelier. The grandeur continues as double front doors grant entry into the stone and pine structure, featuring a unique entryway with a two-story waterfall and a stream filled with koi fish.

The great room also boasts expansive picture windows overlooking the grounds.

Inside, a wooden bridge seamlessly transitions into a spacious great room, accentuated by vast picture windows, a towering fireplace, an 8,700-gallon freshwater aquarium, and an 85-inch retractable TV. Adjacent to this area, the kitchen boasts hickory cabinetry, an expansive island with seating, a hibachi grill equipped with a commercial-grade exhaust system, top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, and a butler’s pantry. This space seamlessly connects to a formal dining area and a cozy fireside family room.
