SAN JOSE, CA-Grosvenor Americas has acquired Century Plaza II, a 99,126-square-foot class A office building in the heart of Silicon Valley in San Jose, CA. The six-story, LEED Gold certified property at 560 S. Winchester is fully leased to Rockefeller Group Business Centers, Cushman & Wakefield, and Merrill Lynch Wealth Management.
The seller was Deka Immobilien, based in Germany. Savills LLC represented the seller in the transaction.
While firms involved in the deal would not disclose the sales price as of deadline, GlobeSt.com has learned from an industry source not involved in the deal that the price was around $47 million.
Built in 2001, Century Plaza II provides excellent visibility and direct access to I-280, which connects San Jose with Cupertino, Palo Alto, and San Francisco, according to a prepared statement. It is also in close proximity to I-880 and Highway 17, which serve areas to the east and south.
One key attraction about the property's location, according to Grosvenor Americas, is that it is near Santana Row, a vibrant pedestrian-friendly community of residences as well as some of Silicon Valley's premier shopping, dining, entertainment, and nightlife destinations.
“With employers increasingly focused on drawing top talent, Century Plaza II offers users an outstanding working environment and superior walkable amenities, explains James Delmotte, SVP of investment for Grosvenor Americas. “This LEED Gold property furthers Grosvenor's longstanding commitment to our Living Cities vision, which drives our investment and development of sustainable mixed-use properties in dynamic cities all over the world.”
According to Sommer Johnson, investment manager for Grosvenor Americas, “Century Plaza II provides us with strong cash flow, long-term upside, and good diversification for our portfolio of West Coast properties.”
He adds that the firm will continue to focus its acquisition efforts on value-add and core-plus office, retail, multifamily residential, and mixed-use properties. “Our target markets include the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Orange County, Seattle, and Washington, DC.”
