Cushman & Wakefield Brings 382 Acres of Land to Market for Sale in Bend, OR, Anticipated to Provide Much Needed Housing

1/7/2020
PORTLAND/SAN DIEGO, January 7, 2020 – Cushman & Wakefield announced today the firm has been retained as exclusive advisor by Oregon Department of State Lands for the sale of approximately 382 acres of land located in Bend, Oregon.

Referred to as the Stevens Road Tract, the property is currently unentitled, however, is designated for development to a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial land uses within the City of Bend Comprehensive Plan.

Stevens Road Tract Bend ORThe Cushman & Wakefield sales team is led by Matt Johnson and Mark Carnese of the firm’s local Portland office in collaboration with Matt Davis of the firm’s specialized Land Advisory Group in San Diego providing advisory service support. The property is being offered unpriced.

“Oregon will benefit tremendously from the sale of these school lands,” says Vicki L. Walker, Director of the Oregon Department of State Lands. “Sale proceeds will go to the Common School Fund, which sends millions to Oregon’s public school districts every year. Development of the property also helps meet Bend’s growing housing needs.”

“The Stevens Road Tract provides a very desirable central Oregon location next to the Old Farm neighborhood at the southeastern boundary of the City of Bend and offers a gorgeous view of the Cascades to the west,” said Matt Johnson, Executive Director. “With a recently updated Comprehensive Plan in place, the property could be builder-ready after master plan and annexation approval for the project. At just over 382 acres, this expansive site presents the opportunity to create a substantial residential community with supporting commercial uses.”

Mark Carnese, Executive Director, added, “The local area boasts an attractive place to live and work, with many public parks and trails that will be further enhanced with the completion of the project.”

Located at 21425 Stevens Rd., the site is located adjacent to 27th St and Reed Market Rd, major arterial streets serving this part of Bend. Highways 20 and 97 are both conveniently located within a few miles, with downtown Bend also closely proximate. Approximately 369.9 acres of the site offering are zoned Urbanizable Area (UA) and will need to be annexed into the City as part of the project, while 12.15 acres are already within the City boundary and designated as Standard Density Residential (SDR).

Matt Davis, Director, said, “This offering presents a great opportunity for a purchaser to provide much needed reasonably priced housing to the Bend community, which we believe would be a welcomed plan to help support the consistent and strong level of in-migration occurring.”

The Tract is currently surrounded by residential land uses to the north and west, rural undeveloped land to the east and Deschutes County Road Department facilities to the south.

With a population approaching 100,000 people, Bend is the largest urban area in Oregon east of the Cascade Mountains. Bend has been ranked in the top 15 fastest growing cities in the U.S. four of the last five years; and in 2018, it was ranked 6th fastest for population growth in the United States. In-migration has been the primary factor in the area’s growth with about 7,000 new residents moving to the area every year. Bend serves as a regional service and trade center for Central Oregon, and has also been ranked second for fastest job growth in the U.S. More than two-thirds of all the jobs in the county are in Bend, and many companies are continuing to move their businesses to the Bend area.
