After more than a year on the market, the Wash Park home of Jerry Gart, the late patriarch of the Gart Brothers Sporting Goods family, sold for $6.8 million, a drop of more than $1 million from its initial list price.

Gart and his wife Sally bought the 9,899-square-foot mansion on 2 acres at 300 S. York St. in 1987. Gart died in 1996.

After taking over the family business from his father, Nathan, who opened the chain’s first store on Larimer Street in 1928, Gart headed Gart Brothers Sporting Goods with his brother, three sons, and an uncle.

Constructed in 1941, the five-bedroom, nine-bath home was designed by famed architect Burnham Hoyt, who designed Red Rocks Amphitheatre and custom-built for John Gates, one of the founders of the Gates Rubber Co. in Denver.

LIV Sotheby’s International Realty listed the property in June 2022 for $7.9 million. It was removed on April 2 and relisted on April 17 for $7 million by John Jaster and Vivian Murciano with Slifer Smith and Frampton Real Estate.

Ken Malo with Re/Max of Cherry Creek represented the buyers.
