Bell Partners, a North Carolina-based multifamily investment and management firm, has acquired the former Milehouse apartment building in Redmond for $78 million.

The 160-unit property, now rebranded as Bell River Trail, is located at 8300 160th Ave. NE. The seller is Denver-based UDR, which has owned the building since 2016 when it acquired it for $69.3 million from the building’s developer, Legacy Partners, reported the Puget Sound Business Journal.

The six-story building features a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom units. The 248,388-square-foot property was completed in 2015. It sits on approximately 1.2 acres, and the building also includes 2,200 square feet of ground-floor retail space.

The deal marks Bell Partners’ second major recent acquisition in the Puget Sound region. Last year, the firm purchased an apartment complex in Lynnwood. JLL arranged the $142 million sale and $83.177 million acquisition financing for the deal, representing the seller, Trammell Crow.
