Property Overview

386± acres of high-quality cropland in Livingston County, split between a 196.7-acre tract near Odell (PIN 04-04-18-300-004) and a 189.2-acre tract near Cornell (PIN 02-02-21-200-005). Both parcels are nearly all tillable, with strong soil types (Bryce & Swygert silty clay loams dominate), level to gently rolling topography, and excellent access to major highways. The Odell parcel fronts a paved township road and is just minutes from I-55; the Manville parcel features frontage on Illinois Route 17.
