Description

0.73-acre commercial pad • For Sale or Ground Lease • Located in Thornton’s active Northeast Denver submarket

Prime investment and development opportunity along Huron Street, offering exceptional visibility and access within the City of Thornton’s Neighborhood Commercial (NC) zoning district. The NC zoning supports a dynamic mix of uses up to two stories, including retail, medical office, restaurant (no drive-thru), and mixed-use residential components. The level 31,799 SF site includes an established access easement on the north boundary and public-maintained frontage on Huron Street. Utilities are available but not fully improved, allowing flexible development sequencing for owner-users or build-to-suit investors.

Positioned 0.6 miles from Thornton Town Center and approximately one mile from I-25, the parcel benefits from steady commuter traffic and adjacency to dense residential neighborhoods such as Carriage Hill East and Hillcrest. Nearby anchors include Starbucks, King Soopers, and regional retailers within the Thornton Town Center trade area. The property sits within Denver’s Northeast submarket, where Q4 2023 retail fundamentals reflect an average asking rent of $18.82/SF and a 10.3% vacancy rate, with rent growth projected to exceed $20/SF by 2025 (Moody’s Analytics).

An ALTA Survey (2017) is available. Zoning and utility data support multiple commercial or mixed-use configurations. Ideal for investors seeking exposure in a submarket forecasted for declining vacancy and above-average absorption over the next two years.
