Brownstone Offices Trade in Brookline Near Longwood Medical Area

Todd Glaskin and Gregg Leppo of Coldwell Banker Commercial Realty arranged the $6.2-million sale of 1093 Beacon St. in Brookline, a 14,000-plus square-foot office building. The property was “one of the last full brownstones available to purchase as a whole building along Beacon Street,” said Glaskin.

“This corner is just a block before Brookline meets Boston and steps to Fenway Park and the Longwood Medical Area,” he continued.  “It was a dream site for either office or residential development and our extensive marketing brought offers from all circles.”

Glaskin and Leppo represented the sellers, Mark Blotner of Kinross Real Estate LLC and Lloyd Rosenthal of Greenline Realty LLC. Glaskin and Leppo also procured the buyer, Matt Ramey, a local developer from Concept Properties.

Two of Brookline’s most noteworthy real estate investors, Blotner and Rosenthal purchased the building in 2005 for $2.5 million. They saw value in the site as an office building with long-term residential development.
