Marilyn Santiago, Victor Galvani and Garrett Quinn, commercial real estate advisors at SVN | Parsons handled the transaction.

3-11 Turnpike Rd. is a 1.5 story retail and office building with 7,778 s/f on a .83 acre lot. The property has always been known as a retail center due to the fact it is one of the first commercial properties in town along Rte. 9 westbound. The property was originally built in 1970 and expanded in 1985.

The new owner, VTT 46-56 Cedar Street LLC, an entity of VTT Management from Framingham purchased 3-11 Turnpike Rd.  for $925,000 and has plans to make improvements to the property.

The building is currently 93% occupied with retail tenants including Bill’s Liquor, Ashland Cabinet Corporation, Ben’s Deli, and Hall of Comics.

“The building provides a convenient location on Route 9 and tremendous visibility with over 450 feet of frontage,” commented Garrett Quinn.
