CHARLOTTE, Feb. 22, 2023 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has closed the sale of Sagebrook Home Distribution Center, a fully leased Class A distribution center totaling 430,920 square feet in Charleston, South Carolina.

JLL represented the seller, Lightstone Group, in the sale to Stockbridge.

The property was completed in 2021 and is fully occupied by Sagebrook Home, a staple in the home décor industry. The warehouse features a cross-dock configuration with institutional-quality features.

Located at 574 Trade Center Parkway in the Charleston Trade Center, the property serves as a regional distribution center with access to Interstates 26, 526 and 95. In addition, Sagebrook Home Distribution Center is proximate to Charleston International Airport and the Port of Charleston. According to JLL’s Charleston Industrial Insight Q4 2022, the Port of Charleston recently completed a major harbor deepening project. As a result, the port is now the deepest on the east coast with the ability to service the largest container ships regardless of season or tide.

The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales Advisory team representing the seller was led by Director Dave Andrews, Senior Managing Directors Pete Pittroff and Patrick Nally and Associate Josh McArdle.

“As we continue to work through an evolving market, this Sagebrook transaction reinforces the demand for core industrial assets in fundamentally strong markets like Charleston,” said Andrews.
