Description:

This exceptional 80-acre development opportunity is strategically positioned in Joliet's fastest-growing residential corridor. Annexed into the City of Joliet with water and sewer available at the property corner, this premier site offers everything developers seek: dual road frontage (2,658 feet on Caton Farm Road, 1,321 feet on S Arbeiter Road), predominantly level topography, and premium soils with minimal flood risk. Recent infrastructure upgrades include Caton Farm Road's expansion to a 5-lane urban roadway, positioning this turnkey site for immediate development.

The property serves a proven high-value market with median household incomes exceeding $115,000 and an exceptionally low 0.7% poverty rate. Strong demand is evidenced by Vista Ridge Subdivision's recent approval (397 units) just half a mile away—the first major development since 2007, signaling renewed market confidence. Na-Au-Say Township has experienced explosive 540% population growth since 2000, driven by families seeking the highly-rated Oswego School District 308 and convenient access to Chicago (30-40 miles). Historical successes including Wesmere (800+ homes) and Kendall Ridge (665 units) established this corridor as a premier residential location.

Currently annexed and zoned R-1 (single family) and R-B commercial Corner by the City of Joliet. The 80-acre configuration offers flexible options for single-family residential, mixed housing types, or planned unit developments. With immediate infrastructure, superior demographics, top-rated schools, and strategic positioning in a corridor poised for significant expansion, this site represents a rare opportunity in suburban Chicago's most dynamic growth market.
