Grant Park 280 is an outstanding, fully improved grain farm in Sumner Township, Kankakee County, Illinois — located northwest of Grant Park and just south of the Kankakee / Will County border. With Chicago's south suburbs roughly an hour away and I-57 a short drive west, the farm sits in a rare sweet spot: productive Corn Belt ground with genuine development-path optionality over the long term.
The farm offers 277 tillable acres out of 280 total — a 99% tillable ratio that means almost every dollar of this purchase is working ground. The soil productivity index of 122.9 places this farm among the stronger producers in the county, well-suited to a corn-and-soybean rotation and built on the deep, well-drained prairie soils that define this part of eastern Illinois.
Improvements add meaningful standalone value and make this a true turnkey operation. The property includes a farmhouse, on-site grain storage, and metal outbuildings — a combination that supports an owner-operator, provides flexibility for a tenant, and is increasingly difficult to replicate at today's construction costs.
Whether you're expanding a farming operation, adding a high-quality income asset to a land portfolio, or looking for productive ground with long-term appreciation potential near a major metro, Grant Park 280 is a rare offering.
