Property Description
SVN | Northco is pleased to present, as exclusive advisor to ownership, the offering of the historic Foot of the Mountain Motel, a boutique mountain retreat located at the base of Boulder Canyon in Boulder, Colorado. Originally established in 1934, this iconic property has served as a beloved hospitality landmark for nearly a century.
The Property encompasses 20 guest units, comprised of 18 well-appointed studios and two spacious suites, situated on approximately 1.05 acres. The accommodations blend authentic mountain lodge character with modern conveniences, appealing to today’s leisure traveler. Recent renovations have enhanced comfort and durability while preserving the property’s vintage charm, ensuring both operational stability and enduring guest appeal.
Boulder remains one of the most supply-constrained, Class A hospitality markets in the country, with extremely limited new development opportunities due to stringent zoning, preservation requirements, and geographic constraints. This scarcity of developable sites creates meaningful long-term pricing power for existing operators and underpins sustained investor demand.
