WASHNGTON, DC – JLL announces that it has closed the $45.4 million sale of the Fairmont Building, a 125,108-square-foot, boutique office building in downtown Bethesda, Maryland.

JLL marketed the property on behalf of the seller, Bainum Family Foundation, a private operating foundation based in Bethesda.  Washington Capital Management, on behalf of their client, purchased the asset.  

Located at 7735 Old Georgetown Road, the Fairmont Building is in the top-performing Bethesda submarket and surrounded by 160 restaurants and shops within the live-work-play Woodmont Triangle area. 

Additionally, the property’s downtown Bethesda location places it proximate to Bethesda Row and some of Washington, D.C.’s most coveted residential neighborhoods.

The Fairmont Building is less than four blocks from the Bethesda Metro Station, which provides Red Line service to downtown D.C. and Metro access to the entire region. 

A future Bethesda Station with Purple Line access is a short walk from the property and will further increase Bethesda’s regional connectivity. 

The 12-story building is ENERGY STAR® rated and 96% leased to a diversified tenant roster. The Fairmont Building features a six-level parking garage along with versatile floor plates.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by senior managing directors Jim Meisel and Andrew Weir, senior director Matthew Nicholson and director David Baker.
