Description
Development ground of this size and position rarely becomes available inside a growing Nebraska community. This 56.90 +/- acre tract sits on the west edge of York in York County, inside the City of York's extraterritorial jurisdiction, with roughly 880 feet of frontage along W 4th Street and the York Country Club bordering the entire south line. The land is level, productive cropland farmed under a center pivot, and it carries an agricultural tax assessment while a buyer works through planning and approvals. That combination is what makes an infill tract like this worth a look: it produces income today and offers a path to development tomorrow, without the carrying cost of ground that sits idle. Location and access. W 4th Street runs the full north boundary and provides the property's sole frontage and access, feeding directly into the 4th Street and Highway 81 corridor that carries traffic between town, the Bypass, and Interstate 80 to the south. Downtown York lies just east, with the established city grid, schools, medical, and retail already in place. Grand Island is roughly 50 miles west, Lincoln is roughly 54 miles east, Hastings is roughly 61 miles southwest, Seward is roughly 28 miles east, and Aurora is roughly 23 miles west. An established road runs along the west line, and the Cottonwood Meadows manufactured home community lies immediately west between the tract and the Highway 81 Bypass. Utilities. Sanitary sewer is reported at the W 4th Street boundary with a water main within approximately 400 feet. Capacity, availability, and connection requirements should be verified with the City of York. Floodplain. A detailed review of FEMA mapping against the property boundary shows approximately 20.9 acres, including the W 4th Street frontage, lying entirely outside the floodplain. Roughly 27.4 acres fall within the 500-year, 0.2 percent annual chance area, and approximately 8.6 acres fall within the 100-year Zone AE along the east and southwest edges. No regulatory floodway touches the property. FEMA Panel 31185C0301G applies. Base flood elevations on site run approximately 1,600 to 1,602 feet, with the dry upland at approximately 1,603 to 1,605 feet. All flood matters should be independently verified. Development potential. An illustrative concept plan drawn to the actual boundary shows an entry drive off W 4th Street feeding a connected internal street network, with commercial pads along the street frontage, roughly 100 single-family homesites through the interior, estate lots fronting the golf course along the south line, and a stormwater pond anchoring the southwest corner. The plan is illustrative only and remains subject to survey, zoning approval, utility extension, and floodplain engineering. The property is currently zoned agricultural, and rezoning would be required to develop. Area context. York County has documented a need for additional housing across multiple product types, and Nebraska offers financing tools, including the Rural Workforce Housing Revolving Loan Fund, Tax Increment Financing, and Micro-TIF, that may apply to qualifying projects. Manufacturing accounts for a significant share of the county workforce, with employers including Klute, Cyclonaire, Corteva, Collins Aerospace, and Cornerstone Building Brands. York sits at the crossroads of Interstate 80 and Highway 81. A full development analysis package covering flood mapping, concept yield plans, buildout scenarios, and area market data is available to qualified buyers on request. Showings are by appointment.
