Edge Capital Markets has now brokered sale of three buildings, comprising nearly 146,000 square feet of space, in Montgomery County in 2020 totaling approximately $21 million
Edge, a full-service commercial real estate firm with offices in Washington D.C., Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania, has brokered the sale of 12300 Carroll Avenue, a 22,000 square foot warehouse building situated in the Rockville section of Montgomery County, Maryland for $4.4 million. The asset was 87% leased to three tenants at the time of the transaction. Edge’s Capital Markets team, led by Joe Friedman, Partner and Will Kostrzewsky, Associate, represented the seller, 12300 Carroll Investors, LLC, a Bethesda-based investment group, and procured the purchaser, HRC Carroll LLC, a 1031 exchange investor in this sales transaction.
This marks the third building sold by Edge’s Capital Markets team in Montgomery County this year. Previous sales include 2301 Research Boulevard, a three-story, 93,000 square foot commercial office building that traded for $9.25 million, and 12006 Plum Orchard Drive, a 30,700 square foot warehouse/office building that sold for $7.35 million. The cumulative sales volume for the three transactions exceeded $21 million.
Situated within close proximity to MD Route 355 (Rockville Pike), 12300 Carroll Avenue is a small-bay warehouse building featuring 16-foot ceiling heights and comprised of fully-conditioned warehouse and office space. It is contained within a .73-acre site with a parking ratio of 1.25 vehicles per 1,000 square feet. The asset is within walking distance to the Twinbrook Metro Center station and a massive federal government complex that includes the U.S Department of Health and Human Services, the Food and Drug Administration and National Institute of Health.
“This transaction was an all-cash 1031 exchange investment purchased without financing and is intended to be a long-term hold for the buyer,”explained Joe Friedman, Partner of Capital Markets at Edge. “The new owner was especially attracted to the desirability and uniqueness of the small-bay design of the asset. The interest was combined with the recognized long-term upside intrinsic value of infill warehouse in the age of ecommerce, the dense commercial and residential development surrounding the site and the significant construction pipeline of mixed-use development in the Twinbrook area of Montgomery County.”
