Woodbridge, N.J., December 3, 2020 – The Kislak Company, Inc. announced the recent sale of Chestnut Commons, a 48-unit multifamily property at 16 South 10th Street in Emmaus, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, for $5,100,000.
Kislak marketed the property on an exclusive basis with vice president Matt Wolf and president Robert Holland handling the assignment on behalf of the seller, LC Realty Capital LP. Messrs. Wolf and Holland also procured the purchaser, Red Knight Properties.
Mr. Wolf commented: “The Chestnut Commons offering provided an opportunity to acquire a value-add property in an excellent market. We generated a significant amount of activity and through our marketing process generated 22 tours and received eight offers. The purchaser is excited to expand their footprint in a new market.”
Built in 1987, the property consists of a three-story brick building with fully renovated one-bedroom apartments with secured entrances and 24-hour onsite maintenance, and a leasing office. Each unit boasts kitchens upgraded with a dishwasher, disposal, microwave, and refrigerator, along with air-conditioning and ceiling fans. Property amenities include onsite parking, laundry facilities, high speed internet, pet-friendly and smoke-free options, and a fully furnished playground.
Situated in a quiet neighborhood minutes from downtown Emmaus, where the former Rodale campus is being redeveloped into an arts center, the apartments are less than two miles from a nature lover’s wildlife sanctuary; less than five miles from a science center; and a 20 minute drive from ski and recreational areas. Colleges and university are within a 10-20-minute drive from the property.
Founded by the Moravian Church, Emmaus has become a welcoming community to diverse people while retaining much of its history. Many of the town’s structures, including the Moravian Church, belong to Pennsylvania’s register of state historical sites. Emmaus was once selected by Money magazine as one of the “Top Best Places to Live.”
