Boston, MA Kenneth Girvin of Chandler Company LLC has brokered the sale of 401 Harrison Ave. (aka 40 Fay St., H-112), for $1.7 million. The buyer was 40 Fay Owner LLC and the seller was Mundy’s Asia Galleries LLC. Sam Hawkey of Tactical Realty Group represented the buyer.
The 2,329 s/f retail condominium in the South End’s SOWA District is currently leased to Related Beal for their construction office for The Quinn mixed-use development project. The sale also included three indoor parking spaces.
Girvin has a long history with the condominium, having sold it previously in 2014. “401 Harrison Ave. is in a highly-visible location at the intersection of East Berkeley St. The increased vehicular and pedestrian traffic, as a result of the development of Ink Block, will help ensure that the acquisition represents a solid long-term investment for the buyer”, stated Girvin.
