Ideally located only 275 feet from the main entrance on "The Hill" to the University of Colorado at Boulder, this four-property portfolio is a generational opportunity to acquire a prime asset in one of the most in-demand and supply constrained student-housing markets in the U.S. The University of Colorado at Boulder experienced a record-breaking 68,000 applications for the Fall of 2024, up 20% from the previous year, and has seen a steady increase in applications and enrollment since 2012, while increasing its retention rate to a record 90%. 1031, 1033, 1045 and 1059 14th Street (the "14th Street Properties") are strategically positioned in the heart of The Hill, steps from Starbucks and the numerous student-focused shops, restaurants and bars that make The Hill the center of student life and the most sought after spot for housing. With the best location on the Hill and off-street parking, the 14th Street Properties are in high demand each year by students and experience zero vacancy, with leases secured annually for the following school year by the end of October. Currently leased to a fraternity chapter for the '25/'26 and '26/'27 school years, with a guarantee from the national organization, the tenant has a strong interest in renewing on a longterm basis. Alternatively, the flexibility is in place for an owner/occupier organization, or an investor looking to pursue a different model such as apartment units.

No one near Chautauqua has parking like this. The Hummingbird House offers an oversized tandem garage that holds three cars in a neighborhood where a single off-street space is bragging rights. Plus alley parking and room for the RV. That alone would sell the house. It happens to sit on a tree-lined street, a stroll from Chautauqua's summer concerts and trailheads, with Pearl Street and campus both walkable. The build quality shows in the envelope: redwood-and-brick exterior, copper gutters, crown molding. The living room gathers light through a bay window and holds it against wood floors and a Jotul gas fireplace. The kitchen pairs granite and a gas range with soft-close cherry cabinets, a beverage fridge, and a sunny breakfast nook. Out back, a covered patio opens to the private garden retreat that gave the house its name: Hummingbird Alley. Upstairs, the primary suite offers wood floors, dual closets, a private terrace, and access to a secluded skylit bonus room with a wet-bar rough-in: an office, studio, or reading retreat. The second bedroom has an ensuite bath, walk-in closet, and Juliet balcony. The lower level changes the math: it offers lock-off capability, a full second kitchen, a living room, a third bedroom (nonconforming) with a walk-in closet, and a rental license already in place. Stainless Munchkin boiler. Homes in this pocket trade on location alone. The Hummingbird House has the location and everything the neighborhood usually asks you to give up.

The Unique Apartment Group is pleased to present 1012 14th Street, a 16-bedroom, 5-bathroom student housing investment property on University Hill in Boulder, Colorado. Steps from the CU Boulder campus and the retail, restaurant, and bar corridor that defines The Hill, the property sits in the most coveted student rental submarket in the state. Students gravitate to The Hill for the social scene and walkability, and demand consistently outpaces supply: University Hill is geographically landlocked and effectively built out, with zoning and topography that sharply limit new construction, while CU Boulder enrolls over 38,000 students against a persistent on-campus housing shortfall.The Hill submarket operates on a pre-leasing cycle: next year's leases are typically executed during the prior fall semester, giving ownership rare forward visibility into occupancy and rental income before the current term rolls. 1012 14th Street is currently leased to fraternity members, providing organizational lease guarantees and a built-in pipeline for future occupancy through the chapter's recruitment cycle. Annual rent step-ups are the submarket norm, and the 16-bed, 5-bath configuration suits the group lease model, reducing turnover friction and delivering a stabilized, hands-off cash flow profile.Ownership has also invested meaningfully in the asset over recent years, leaving a new buyer with minimal near-term capital exposure: in 2023, all bathrooms and the basement kitchen were renovated, the roof received extensive repair and shingle replacement, and new modified bitumen was installed on the flat roof section; in 2024, the PRV and expansion tank were replaced; and in 2025, interior paint and flooring were refreshed throughout.

Hill Yeah! When it comes to student housing, few areas work harder than University Hill. This well-maintained duplex with one very lively backyard sits steps from CU Boulder's campus and every Buffs game, class, and Friday night the calendar can offer. 2026-2027 projected NOI: $82,320. That's the kind of number University Hill produces year after year, thanks to a tenant pool that basically renews itself every August. Buy the duplex. Ride the schedule. Let the school do the marketing.

While strolling back from Chautauqua, consider stopping by 757 12th St - an approximately 6,116 sq ft building lot just three blocks from Chautauqua Park, nestled beneath the Flatirons on a quiet, mostly owner-occupied street. Established neighborhood with strong pride of ownership, lush foliage for privacy, and world-class hiking and biking trails, just minutes away. Level, buildable lot with alley access and utility hookups available. Water and sewer taps paid previously, cable TV available, partially fenced. The lot allows up to 3,323 sq ft of floor area and 2,273 sq ft of building coverage, with a 32.47 ft height limit. A basement, in addition to above-grade square footage, can be habitable with reasonable egress. Substantial entitlement work has been completed in the past. Previously approved plans (since voided for inactivity) called for a 2-story single-family home - 1,882 sq ft of interior living plus a 480 sq ft attached 2-car garage above grade, over a 1,418 sq ft finished basement - while preserving the existing 396 sq ft historic landmarked carriage house. The historic carriage house may have potential for ADU conversion (carrying historic designation; the lot itself does not), as previously confirmed by the city. Included in the sale: blueprints, soil reports, and the previously approved architectural plans. Boulder real estate has demonstrated strong appreciation, and, an opportunity in a location this hard to replicate, doesn't come along often.

Two separate residences on one lot! Pre-leased through July/August 2027. Well maintained and professionally managed for 30+ years. 741-743 19th Street presents a turnkey, recession-proof asset in the city's most lucrative rental pocket. Rare Double-Income Layout: Unlike standard single-family homes, this property features two separate houses on one lot, packing 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms into a single parcel. Proven, Low-Risk History: With a 30 year track record of uninterrupted rental history, the property has a proven blueprint for success, making it an easy addition to a portfolio or a perfect asset for a 1031 tax-deferred exchange. Professionally managed for decades with 100% Occupancy rates with an almost endless supply of renters year after year! While other real estate investments suffer during economic downturns, student housing directly adjacent to a major university like CU Boulder can be a defensive asset. Because the property packs 7 bedrooms across two separate houses on one lot, you are purchasing a high-density rent engine in a premium zip code where strict local zoning laws prevent competitors from building new multi-family structures. Essentially, you are buying a scarce piece of real estate with a captive consumer base! 48-hour notice for showings.
