Commercial/Industrial Parcel In Orange Sells For $1.65 Million

ORANGE, CT — A three acre commercial/industrial property at 65-69 Marsh Hill Road, and 0 and 15 Salemme Lane, in Orange was recently sold for $1.65 million, according to Michael Richetelli, president and designated broker of Colonial Properties, Inc. Richetelli represented the seller, 65 Marsh Hill Road, LLC, in the land sale.

The property was purchased by Orange Tree Realty, which plans to build a restaurant supply warehouse and distribution facility.

Located just off exit 41 of I-95, the property offered "superior location," according to Richetelli. The price per acre of $550,000 is "one of the highest recorded for a light industrial land sale in Orange in recent times."

The Seller's attorney was Tom Lynch of Lynch, Trembicki, and Boynton in Milford, CT; the Buyer's attorney was John Moehring of West Hartford, CT.

"The robust price per acre we were able to obtain for this property was due in part to the superior location, as well as the high demand and short supply of light industrial product in the market," Richetelli said. "This was truly a win-win transaction, as the Seller realized a strong price, the Buyer obtained an excellent piece of real estate to operate their business and we were able to generate some Economic Development for the town of Orange."
