About this House

260 acres with fabulous views, a pond, 175 acres m/l tillable and nearly 85 acres timber. Great location with frontage on Hwy 20 and E Read Road, just east of Elizabeth. This would be a wonderful place for the nature lovers to build a home, be close to wildlife and let the tillable acres pay the taxes. Tillable acres are rented through 2023 crop season. Well and septic would be required to be installed, if desired. Taxes will be determined after survey. Some pictures show more property than is for sale. Cross reference maps in Associated Docs. Measurements are estimates. There is a party with a Right of First Refusal.

E Read Rd #US-20, Elizabeth, IL 61028 is a lot/land. It last sold for $1,833,258 on Apr 27, 2023 (14% below the $2,132,000 asking price). It is currently off market.
