Sabbia Beach Condos, Atlantic Ocean View, Pompano Beach, FL

POMPANO BEACH, FL  — Fernbrook Florida, LLLP announces Sabbia Beach, the first new luxury oceanfront condominium development to be built in Pompano Beach in nearly a decade.  The project is already 25 percent reserved before its official launch.

“Buyers looking for new construction directly on the sand will find one of the very few places left to experience this lifestyle in South Florida,” said Danny Salvatore, a partner in Fernbrook Florida, an affiliate of Fernbrook Homes in Canada. “Future residents of Sabbia Beach will have the Atlantic Ocean as their backyard.”

 Sabbia Beach, designed by world-renowned Arquitectonica, will be built on one of the last remaining parcels of land located on a 3-mile stretch of pristine shoreline at 730 North Ocean Blvd.

These 72 intimate residences include two-, three- and four-bedroom residences, two penthouse suites and four lanai residences. 

They will have floor-to-ceiling, sliding-glass doors leading to balconies offering ocean, city and Intracoastal views. Pre-construction prices will start in the low $900,000s.

 The 19-story project will be nestled less than a mile north of the well-known Pompano Beach pier, putting residents close to outdoor shops, live entertainment and fine dining.

Within the development, tropical lush landscaping will lend itself to resort-style amenities designed by Interiors by Steven G. that include a state-of-the art fitness center, treatment massage rooms, tasting room, designated yoga area, 24-hour security and valet.

“Sabbia Beach embraces the sophisticated, yet beach-chic lifestyle buyers are seeking,” said Lisa Whitaker of Hemisphere Sales Group, which is managing sales for Sabbia Beach.

“It’s an ideal location for those who want to experience oceanfront living year round, including empty nesters looking to downsize without having to sacrifice lifestyle and living space.  It’s also ideal for those who desire a second or third home.”

Amy Ballon

 “Buyers are moving north from Miami and Fort Lauderdale as oceanfront land has become rare and more expensive,” said Amy Ballon, a partner in Hemisphere Sales Group. 

 “Our developers understand this trend and have set out to create a landmark building.”

While sales have already begun, the development team is planning to build an on-site sales gallery which is expected to open in mid-spring.  

Groundbreaking is expected in the Fall of 2015 with expected completion in 2017.

Cushman & Wakefield Brokers Sale of Congress Industrial Square in Delray Beach, FL

Congress Industrial Square, Delray Beach, FL

Matthew McAllister

DELRAY BEACH, FL - Cushman & Wakefield announced today that is has brokered the sale of Congress Industrial Square, a ±25,000-square-foot showroom/warehouse in Delray Beach, Florida.

Senior Director Christopher Thomson, Associate Director Matthew McAllister, Executive Director Chris Metzger, and Executive Director Rick Etner represented Congress Industrial Square, LLC in the sale of the multi-tenant industrial space to Delray Business Center, LLC. 

The transaction was valued at $2,725,000.

Congress Industrial Square was built in 2000 and is located at 125 North Congress Avenue. It features 24’ clear ceiling heights, one dock-high door, 18 grade-level doors and 90 parking spaces. The facility is 100-percent leased and offers immediate access to Interstate 95 and Atlantic Avenue.

Christopher Thomson

The property is located in the Palm Beach industrial market which has been buoyed recently by increased seaport activity. As users clamor to capitalize on this economic upswing, the demand for assets like Congress Industrial Square has increased.

“Activity at the ports increased, providing new opportunities for the region’s many logistics and trade related firms,” reads Cushman & Wakefield’s Q4 2014 Palm Beach Industrial MarketBeat Report.

“Proximity to mass distribution markets, ports, and freeways add to the heightened demand … however, land is in short supply and very expensive, so there is a very high barrier of entry for new development projects.”

The dearth of available product has not deterred investors. They have simply discovered other avenues into the market.

“Pricing has pushed some investors out of the local distribution market,” explained Thomson. “They’re still looking to place money, though, and flex product is currently a very viable and desirable option.”
