Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale commercial building was previously operated as a convenience store and totals 2,752 SF on a 0.81-acre site. The former Kum & Go tenant has removed the underground tanks, canopy, and fuel pumps. Interior improvements include a cooler that will remain, along with fixed counters and a checkout counter, supporting a streamlined transition for a new convenience or neighborhood retail concept.

The property is located on Mormon Trek Blvd and Benton St, with the listing noting high traffic counts and signage potential. Zoned CN1 or Neighborhood Commercial, it is positioned for small-scale retail and personal service uses intended to serve the surrounding community.

From an operator’s standpoint, the existing counter and checkout setup, combined with the remaining cooler, can be a practical fit for a grab-and-go retailer or a neighborhood service retail offering consistent with CN1 allowances. The CN1 zoning supports flexibility for smaller formats, while the site’s visibility along two streets can support customer-facing businesses that benefit from walk-in and drive-by traffic.

Key Highlights

  • Commercial building totaling 2,752 SF on 0.81 acres
  • High traffic location on Mormon Trek Blvd and Benton St with signage potential
  • CN1/Neighborhood Commercial zoning for small scale retail, personal service, and convenience store use
