Property Description
This rare 2.86-acre parcel along S Kings Road in unincorporated Crete has already been cleared and was previously slated for new construction - meaning the groundwork is done and the canvas is yours. Lots of this size and quality simply don't come available often in the Chicago south suburbs, and when they do, they don't last. Whether you're envisioning a custom-built forever home, a working homestead with room for raised bed gardens, chickens, fruit trees, and outbuildings, or simply a private retreat with elbow room you can't find anywhere closer to the city - this is your site. Nearly three acres gives you the freedom to design a property that truly reflects your lifestyle, not someone else's floor plan. Crete is a village in Will County, just 30 miles south of the Chicago Loop, offering a pace of life you won't find in the dense northwest or north suburbs. The village has maintained its small-town charm while growing to nearly 9,000 residents, and continues to be a magnet for upscale residential development. Residents consistently cite the quiet neighborhoods, friendly community, and easy access to Chicago's amenities as the reasons they chose to put down roots here. Crete offers award-winning schools, low crime, beautiful parks, and lush natural preserved areas, plus more than six golf courses within a short drive. Families will appreciate the Crete-Monee Community Unit School District 201U - an intimate learning environment rarely found this close to a major metro. Governors State University is also nearby in University Park, which borders Crete. Outdoor enthusiasts are equally at home here. Recreational opportunities abound, including parks, golf courses, and the nearby Old Plank Road Trail for biking and hiking. The Goodenow Grove forest preserve along Plum Creek offers ice skating and sledding in the winter and hiking throughout the summer. Annual community events like Park-A-Palooza at Heritage Park bring neighbors together in a true small-town tradition. Commuters will appreciate proximity to IL Route 394 and IL Route 1, with Metra Electric Line service accessible from nearby University Park for a direct connection to downtown Chicago. Unincorporated Will County - lower tax burden. No HOA. Buyer to verify all utilities, zoning, and buildability. Their loss is your gain - we can recommend a builder so you can make it yours!
