Sower, Dragos and Jacoby of Colliers handle $15.75 million sale
Brighton, MA Colliers International’s investment sales team has sold 1515 Commonwealth Ave. on behalf of Curahealth/Nautic Partners. The property sold for $15.75 million to Boston-based developer, The Davis Companies. The sale was led by investment sales leaders, Christopher Sower and Scott Dragos along with and Doug Jacoby.
Formerly operating as a long-term acute care hospital, 1515 Commonwealth Ave. is a 2.12-acre redevelopment site. Currently improved with a 58,000 s/f, four-story building, 1515 Commonwealth Ave. provides ample opportunity for growth, based on density precedents set by nearby development projects. The property has access to downtown Boston via the MBTA Green Line and is near the new development, Boston Landing.
Walking distance to well-established amenities of Coolidge Corner, Brighton Center and Allston, makes the site an appealing location to meet demand now being driven by the city’s multifamily boom.
“Based on the growth of the Allston-Brighton market, 1515 Commonwealth Ave. received great interest across the market. We were pleased to work with The Davis Companies again on an opportunity of this caliber,” said Sower.
“As a team, we are happy to have worked with Curahealth/Nautic Partners on the successful sale of this asset and look forward to working with both Davis and Curahealth/Nautic in the future,” said Dragos.
