What’s special

14.67-acre lot
Tucked along the serene eastern edge of Crete in unincorporated Will County, this exceptional 14+ ACRE property offers a rare opportunity to create your own private retreat surrounded by nature. Perfectly positioned near I-394 for convenient access, yet secluded enough to feel worlds away, this parcel, Zoned A-1, strikes an ideal balance between accessibility and tranquility. Bordering Goodenow Grove Nature Preserve and just moments from Plum Valley Preserve, the land is immersed in over a thousand acres of protected natural beauty. Towering old-growth oaks and thriving hardwoods create a picturesque landscape, while a gentle seasonal creek winds through the property, adding to its peaceful charm. Wildlife is abundant, offering encounters with whitetail deer and songbirds in a setting that provides peace and serenity. With its desirable rectangular shape and generously sized acreage, this property presents multiple potential build sites for your dream home or private estate, subject to county approvals. Whether you envision a secluded residence, a place to raise and keep farm animals, or a weekend escape, this parcel provides the perfect canvas. Enhanced by enrollment in the Illinois Forest Management Plan, the property owner benefits from reduced property taxes while preserving the natural integrity of the land. Just minutes from nearby dining, shopping and entertainment with convenient access to I-394 and Metra rail. Opportunities like this-where location, acreage, and natural beauty align are increasingly rare - This one is a MUST SEE!!
