NGKF Capital Markets has completed the sale of Newport Irvine Center, a three-story, Class A, 76,837-square-foot office property in Newport Beach, CA. Located at 3300 Irvine Avenue, the property was 87 percent occupied at the close of escrow.
Paul Jones, Kevin Shannon, Blake Bokosky, and Robert Griffith of NGKF Capital Markets, represented the institutional seller, as well as the buyers, Newport Beach-based Cress Capital and New York-based C-III.
“Newport Irvine Center offered an investor a very rare Newport Beach ownership opportunity. This asset has historically attracted smaller tenants that want a high quality office environment with a convenient commute, while being immediately adjacent to the John Wayne Airport,” said Paul Jones, senior managing director with NGKF in its Newport Beach office.
Built in 1980 and renovated over the past few years, Newport Irvine Center is situated on 3.23 acres. It offers contemporary interior finishes, abundant landscaping with outdoor seating areas, ample surface and covered parking, and highly visible corporate signage opportunities. Newport Irvine Center includes tenants such as InstaMed Communications, Newport Back & Sport Institute, Klarin & Associates, CPA and Cambridge Financial Partners.
