The property, which will operate under the Storage King USA brand, was on the market for an estimated price of $19 million. Crystal View Capital sold the asset, Yardi Matrix data shows.
According to the same source, the property previously traded in 2019 for $8.8 million, when it was purchased from a private individual. The asset also became subject to a $9.5 million CMBS loan in 2021, originated by Deutsche Bank, with Wells Fargo Bank as lender.
Completed between 1969 and 1981, the one-story building comprises 681 climate-controlled units, ranging between 25 and 300 square feet. Situated on a 26.6-acre parcel, the property also features office and commercial spaces, as well as 303 car parking spots.

Located at 4510 Edison Ave., the property is 5 miles from downtown Colorado Springs and 8 miles from Colorado Springs Airport. The facility is one of the 32 available within a 3-mile radius, offering residents 15.8 rentable square feet per capita.
