JLL brokers $13.1 million sale on behalf of Clarion Partners

400 Manley Street - Bridgewater, MA

Bridgewater, MA On behalf of Clarion Partners, JLL’s Capital Markets experts completed the sale of 400 Manley St., a 215,000 s/f industrial facility in Greater Boston’s Rte. 24 corridor. Recognizing the increasing value of well-located distribution warehouses, a private investment group purchased the property for $13.1 million. 

According to JLL managing director Frank Petz, “400 Manley offered investors an increasingly rare opportunity to purchase a quality, high-bay warehouse within 20 minutes of Boston. Although the property will be occupied for the next several years, e-commerce trends have brought newfound tenant demand to Boston, and 400 Manley will be positioned to capture this demand for years to come. With its great physical attributes and highway accessibility, companies looking for well-located distribution space will undoubtedly be attracted to this property in the future.”
