Massey Knakal Realty Services was the sole broker in this transaction. Broker Tom Donovan of the firm tells GlobeSt.com that the seller, Dennis Novick, wanted to sell because of the "great market," and to "consolidate his business to Brooklyn."
Donovan tells GlobeSt.com that there was "extraordinary" interest in the property. The buyer, he reveals, is a partnership between Steven Werther and Winka Dubbeldam. "The sell price was less than 8% of asking but $250,000 over the reconciled value," he says.
The property, which was entirely one-story before it was renovated with a two-story extension, is located on the southwest corner of Hubert and Collister Streets. It contains approximately 9,923 sf including mezzanine space on the ground floor and professional offices on the second and third floors. Additionally, the third floor boasts a gym, classroom and a steam bath/shower.
"The building has been completely renovated," says former Massey Knakal broker Peter DeCheser, in a prepared release. "The extension was built full on the eastern side of the property, and there are two double-wide bays on the Hubert Street side for loading."
