Value-add location

Located at 3465 S. Gaylord Court, the 5.8-acre community is situated adjacent to the Cherry Hills Village neighborhood. A mix of various destinations, including Cherry Hills Country Club, Wellshire Golf Course, University of Denver, Denver Tech Center, Washington Park and Bonnie Brae, are also nearby.

Jordan Robbins and Directors Jeff Haag and Anna Stevens led the team that represented the seller. The community was 90.7 percent occupied as of June.

“Kent Place is one of the most unique multifamily properties in all of Denver, with extremely large units to fit the area’s most prominent demographic,” Robbins said in a statement. “Additionally, Forum Real Estate Group did an outstanding job with ‘over-amenitizing’ the property to genuinely fit the resident profile. This is truly an irreplaceable asset within the market.”
