50 1st Avenue

Kalispell, MT 59901

Rare 3.5-acre infill site in downtown Kalispell along the Parkline Trail. Zoned B-3 Core Area, and located in the Business & Westside TIF District. Level, assembled parcel with frontage on West Montana Street and the trail. Mixed-use / multi-family opportunity in the heart of the Core Area — walkable to Kalispell Center Mall, hotels, Main Street, and everyday services. Kalispell is the commercial and service hub of the Flathead Valley, between Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, and the Whitefish–Bigfork recreation corridor. This site puts future residents and tenants in the center of that demand: grocery, dining, lodging, and retail are already next door, while the valley’s destination amenities are a short drive. Glacier Park International Airport (FCA) roughly a 15–20 minute drive. That proximity matters for workforce housing, hospitality, and mixed-use: guests and residents can land and be downtown without a long transfer. From the property, the rest of the valley is close. Whitefish and Whitefish Mountain Resort are about 15–20 minutes north. The west entrance to Glacier National Park at West Glacier is about 35 miles / 40–45 minutes. Flathead Lake — the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi — is about 15 minutes south toward Somers, Lakeside, and Bigfork, with Bigfork itself about 18 miles / 25–30 minutes. Hiking, skiing, golf, and lake recreation are all day-trip close, which is why downtown Kalispell continues to draw both year-round residents and destination visitors. The Parkline Trail is the on-site amenity. It replaced the old rail corridor with a landscaped linear park through the Core Area and has already pulled new housing, hospitality, and retail onto adjoining sites. Combined with flexible B-3 standards — mixed commercial and residential uses, multi-family permitted, and a 60-foot height limit (taller with a CUP) — this is one of the larger assembled downtown parcels left for a trail-oriented project.
