Originally established pre-1970's, this Chevron station has evolved from a landmark quality gas and auto service business, to a modern day Chevron Marketplace convenience store facility, complete with all the latest upgrades. Uniquely located on a hi-traffic throughfare signalized intersection, close to a major freeway interchange, with a commuting and errand-oriented customer base traveling to 2 adjacent major blvds., the station has enjoyed uninterupted high gasoline pool margins and C-store mark-ups unique to the Portland Metro Area. Residential income levels within a 5-mile radius are well above average, contributing to the station's reputation for quality service, without the strong competitive compromises typical of the industry. This opportunity is ideal for the investor or owner/operator interested in owning a prime piece of real property & profitable business enterprise.
