Description
Escape to your own private sanctuary on this stunning 5-acre wooded parcel at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, surrounded by protected Moeller Woods Preserve and Plum Creek running through. This is one of those rare pieces of land that feels "away from it all" yet sits within easy reach of downtown Chicago and everyday conveniences in charming Crete. With no close neighbors, backing up to land owned by Will County, you have the ultimate in privacy and seclusion. All the groundwork for building has been completed for you. The property is surveyed and has received approvals from the Army Corps of Engineers and the IDNR for residential construction, including well and septic installation. Soil, wetlands, and endangered species studies are finished- saving a new owner significant time and expense. Build your dream home or weekend retreat in a truly serene setting that balances seclusion with accessibility. Right off the interstate, but with no highway noise. This is a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and build-ready practicality.
