Elite Land and Auction is proud to bring the “Whittaker Trust Centennial Farm” to Auction on November 23, 2026, at 1:00 p.m., with in-person participants requested to meet at the American Farm Heritage Museum, Building 3 – located at 1395 Ridge Avenue, Greenville, Illinois. This property will be offered in five (5) tracts, with buyer’s choice. This property is in Greenville, Illinois, and has served as the homestead for four generations for the Whittaker Family. Having previously served as a row crop farm and providing years of recreational use, it has been parceled into five (5) tracts to offer the same opportunity to the new owners. The cropland is productive, with 2025 yields showing 216bpa for Corn, and 52bpa for beans. The property offers marketable timber, consisting of walnuts and various oaks. There is also an old pine planting on a portion of the property that offers additional timber stand diversity. Walking throughout the property, not only is the timber impressive, but there is an abundance of habitat diversity with the expired CRP fields. The current CRP contracts expired 10/1/2026, and the new owners will have to wait one year before re-enrolling in a CRP program. We also noted an abundance of young oak regeneration throughout as well. The home and detached garage have been well-kept and will serve as a great home for the new buyer. There is ample space, plenty of storage, and complementing the house is a screened-in back porch that overlooks the pond and scenic view of the backyard. Wildlife frequents the backyard and pond area, adding to the serene setting. The detached garage offers over 2,500 +/- square feet of storage space for equipment, vehicles, and more. It has been meticulously kept over the years. Elite Land and Auction will host two open houses to allow potential buyers the opportunity to see everything this property offers firsthand. Furthermore, we ask that no one enter or remain upon the Whittaker properties without having previously obtained permission from the listing agent. Be Aware - this property has hunters present throughout the deer season. You must confirm showings/viewings before accessing the properties.

The carrying out of agricultural activities has long been, and continues to be, an important part of the way of life for Bond County residents, and such activities provide a large portion of the income derived by the County’s population. Thus, to promote and protect this mainstay of the local economy, it has been established as official policy that the County should protect, preserve, and encourage the pursuit of agriculture by its residents. The creation of the A-1 Agricultural District is an integral part of that policy. The A-1 District encompasses sparsely developed areas which, because of the fertility of the soil, topography, the availability of water, and other factors, including the suitability of the land for the raising of animals, have high agricultural productivity. The regulations for this district are intended to preserve such agricultural land by severely restricting the encroachment of non agricultural uses and structures. The owners and renters of property, whether farm or non farm, in this district should realize that they will likely encounter the smells, sights and sounds attendant to agricultural operations.
