Crane-Equipped 20,500 SF Industrial Facility on 5.06 Acres
This is an industrial property that makes its capabilities obvious the moment you pull onto the concrete laydown yard: a 20,500 square-foot, steel-frame facility purpose-built for heavy manufacturing and service work. Constructed in 2007 and sitting on a level 5.06-acre parcel, the building pairs a 17,500 SF shop—complete with a 15-ton overhead crane—with a fully finished 3,000 SF office wing. The shop includes a dedicated wash bay, test and paint booth, compressed-air distribution, and a restroom with shower, supporting continuous production or turnaround work.
The office area reads like a small corporate support center: a reception area, seven private offices, a conference room, kitchen, copy room and IT room allow administrative and operational teams to work side-by-side with shop staff. Utilities are in place for industrial use (municipal water, electric available; septic). The site is fenced with security lighting and features expansive paved areas for trailer storage, equipment staging and truck maneuvering—practical features for an owner-operator or an industrial tenant seeking minimal upfront modification.
Located on Westside Cemetery Road just off the FM 316 corridor, the property sits within Yorktown’s mixed-use industrial/residential/agricultural landscape. Local anchors include Yorktown High School (approximately 1.2 miles) and the Yorktown Historical Museum (about 1.4 miles), making this facility accessible to local labor and community services. From a valuation standpoint, the property was listed at $995,625 in December 2022 (≈ $48.57/SF), and current analysis places market range between $900,000 and $1,100,000 depending on intended use and condition.
This offering is best suited for manufacturers, heavy service providers, fleet operators, or investors seeking a specialized industrial asset with immediate functional use. The property is currently vacant and available for inspection with advance notice; prospective buyers should verify ownership, conduct equipment and environmental assessments, and confirm zoning and utility capacities.

Yorktown is a compact, service-oriented community in DeWitt County where industrial, agricultural and residential uses sit side-by-side. The town supports a stable local workforce and essential services including Yorktown Independent School District schools within roughly 1–1.5 miles of the property. Local character centers on small businesses, community institutions like the Historical Museum, and easy access to rural supply chains. For manufacturers and contractors, the neighborhood offers pragmatic proximity to labor and regional road corridors while maintaining low-cost operating overhead compared with larger Texas metros.
Local recreation is anchored by small-town civic sites—the Yorktown Historical Museum is 1.4 miles away—and open agricultural landscapes for outdoor work; nearby parks and county facilities are reachable by short drive.
A factual market snapshot around 1335 Westside Cemetery Road.
Yorktown and DeWitt County represent a small, specialized market where industrial inventory is limited and comparables are sparse. Residential listings in the area show a median listing price near $250,000 with an average days-on-market of roughly 69 days — but industrial demand is driven by local industry needs rather than broad residential trends. Available comparables include significantly larger industrial sales nearby (example: 71,566 SF property at 714 Riedel St sold in late 2022), and price-per-square-foot metrics vary widely. For this specific property, valuation modeling has produced a range of $900,000–$1,100,000 (midpoint ~$1,000,000), with a price-per-SF estimate in the high $40s.
Given the facility’s heavy-equipment features (15-ton crane, paint/test booths) and secure laydown yard, the asset appeals to buyer-operators or niche industrial tenants rather than general warehouse users. The market currently leans toward prudent buyers: small-town demographics (projected slight population decline) and limited local demand mean buyers can negotiate, but truly turnkey, crane-equipped sites remain uncommon, supporting value for qualified industrial users. Key considerations for purchasers include verifying title and ownership, performing equipment and environmental assessments, and confirming intended use with county zoning. In short: a compelling specialized asset in a niche market where careful due diligence will uncover opportunity.
