Bear Peak Development Acquires 87-acre Master-planned Site in Douglas County, Colorado

Pinery Village Phase II, an 87-acre commercial master-planned development in unincorporated Douglas County, Colorado has been acquired by Bear Peak Development.

The project includes approximately 53 buildable acres and is positioned to address a growing execution gap in Colorado’s commercial development landscape, where strong demand increasingly collides with entitlement friction and delivery uncertainty.

Pinery Village Phase II is governed by a Planned Development zoning framework that permits a broad mix of commercial uses, including retail, medical office, professional services, light industrial, flex, self-storage, and recreational uses. This zoning latitude allows uses to evolve with market demand rather than forcing projects into narrow regulatory silos that extend timelines and erode project momentum.

“Fully entitled land with real infrastructure progress is increasingly difficult to find, particularly in a development-friendly county,” said Sam Zaitz, Managing Director at JLL. “Projects like this stand out because the hard work has been done up front, which gives users confidence and a clearer path from planning to construction.”

Bear Peak Development is positioning the project around an integrated delivery model.

The integrated delivery model plan consolidates site improvement plan approvals, preconstruction coordination, and construction execution. The approach is designed to reduce handoffs, compress uncertainty, and mitigate the execution fatigue that increasingly derails otherwise viable commercial projects.

“There are too many good businesses that never get built because the process wears them down,” said Nick Larson, Partner at Bear Peak Development. “Our role is to absorb that friction. When entitlement and construction risk are addressed early, operators can stay focused on running their businesses instead of navigating a fragmented development process.”

The site is located along the Highway 83 corridor in the Castle Rock–Parker trade area and is adjacent to a 123,000-square-foot King Soopers Marketplace currently under construction. Significant backbone infrastructure, including roads and utilities, is already complete. Remaining horizontal improvements are expected to be financed through a near-term metropolitan district bond sale, allowing land users to begin vertical planning while infrastructure work proceeds in parallel.

The project is being marketed to owner-users and service-oriented businesses seeking zoning flexibility, infrastructure certainty, and an accelerated path to development in one of Douglas County’s most active growth corridors.
