The freestanding 5,124-square-foot property is uniquely positioned at the corner of Tanglewood Ln and Silverthorne Ln, with excellent visibility from the I-70 (44,000 VPD) exit ramp. As one of the first properties visible from Exit 205, just off Blue River Parkway (CO-9), which runs through Silverthorne, the property represents a rare commercial opportunity in a desirable market with extremely limited inventory.

The property sold to a local owner-user who intends to operate their business in a portion of the property and lease the remainder of the space. The transaction closed utilizing seller financing, allowing the seller to generate immediate cash flow while the new buyer restores the property to turnkey condition.

Blue West Capital's Noah Harrison, Tom Ethington, and Robert Edwards represented the seller, a New Mexico-based individual.

We quickly received an offer utilizing seller financing that was beneficial for both parties. The buyer's local presence and knowledge of the Summit County market simplified the transaction process and allowed our team to close approximately 100 days after bringing the property to market. Retail tenants, developers, and investors remain active across Colorado. This deal showcases the significant demand for solid underlying real estate in niche mountain markets.
