Office, research building south of Boston sells for $28.8 million


KBS Real Estate Investment Trust purchased 825 University Ave., an office and research facility in Norwood, Mass., for $28.8 million in Dec. 2006.

The sellers were Cabot, Cabot & Forbes of Boston and Commonfund Realty of Wilton, Conn. They were represented by Cushman & Wakefield's Capital Markets Group and used Real Capital Markets to market this transaction.

The two-story structure includes 166,574 square feet on 18.81 acres located just south of Boston.

The building is 100 percent leased in long-term agreements to two publicly traded tenants: Instron Corporation, a division of Fortune 500 giant Illinois Tool Works, and LTX Corporation.

In late 2006, Cabot, Cabot & Forbes, a real estate developer, began a $1.55 billion endeavor to redevelop the University Ave. Industrial Park into a pedestrian friendly, transit-oriented multi-use complex.

The plans call for the development of more than 4.5 million square feet of new space in three phases, including residential, office, open-air retail and potentially hotels.

KBS Real Estate Investment Trust is a publicly offered, non-traded real estate investment trust.

Address: 825 University Ave., Norwood, Mass.

Size: 166,574 square feet

Built: 1980
