Ward of Colliers International sells Rye Airfield Skatepark for $6.1m

Rye, NH Colliers International, a global leader in commercial real estate services, has completed the sale of 2 and 6 Airfield Dr. and 190 Lafayette Rd. to Grail Real Estate, LLC and Planche Real Estate, LLC, respectively. The two lots total 27.49 acres and 61,659 s/f of buildings. 

According to Rockingham County Registry of Deeds, the total sale price was $6.1 million.

Andrew Ward from Colliers International represented the seller, Rickert Investment Real Estate, LLC in the transaction and the buyer was represented by Tony Jalbert, of Tate & Foss Sotheby’s International Realty.

The seller was pleased to be able to package two very different lots into a single transaction with a short closing timeline. Rye Airfield, New England’s premiere skate and bike park, a non-profit, was opened in 2001 and quickly became both a regional and national draw for skate and bike enthusiasts. 

The mission of the non-profit is to provide opportunity for action sports through a safe and fun environment and it hopes to grow from roughly 20,000 participants annually to more than 100,000 with the proceeds from this sale.
