Bartholomew of R.W. Holmes handles 20,082 s/f flex space lease
Littleton, MA R.W. Holmes has completed the lease of 20,082 s/f of flex space at 9 Beaver Brook Rd.
Boston Semi Equipment (BSE), a global provider of semiconductor test solutions, leased the property to support its continued growth and operational expansion. The building offers a flexible layout and infrastructure that is well suited for both office and light manufacturing needs.
“BSE was looking for a building to house their state-of-the-art manufacturing environment,” said Jim Bartholomew, vice president at R.W. Holmes. “With 9 Beaver Brook’s location right off I-495 and plenty of nearby amenities for employees, it was a great match. The building fits the bill perfectly – all systems were recently upgraded, and a new roof was installed in November of last year.”
Bartholomew represented Rogers Properties Group, LLC, the landlord, in the transaction. Colliers represented Boston Semi Equipment, the tenant, with Annie Cole and John Carroll III serving as cooperating brokers.
