MIAMI, FL – Nov. 5, 2015 – Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced it has closed the $29.8 million sale of a three-property portfolio of grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers totaling 236,324 square feet in the coastal Florida communities of Melbourne, Rockledge and Cocoa.

HFF marketed the property on behalf of the seller, a joint venture between PMAT and an investment account managed by Hunt Investment Management.  Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II purchased the portfolio. 

The 90.6-percent leased portfolio consists of three high-performing grocery-anchored shopping centers at strategic points along the coast of Brevard County, including two Publix-anchored centers, Windover Square in Melbourne and Rockledge Square in Rockledge, and the Winn-Dixie-anchored Port St. John Plaza in Cocoa. 

The 81,516-square-foot Windover Square features a Publix anchor supported by national tenants Dollar Tree, Weight Watchers and Hair Cuttery.  Situated on 10.3 acres at 2227 West New Haven Avenue, the center has frontage along Melbourne’s major commercial corridor.
