Completed in 2003, Manokeek Village Center is 96 percent leased to Giant, the No. 1 grocer in the Washington, D.C. area, along with a diverse mix of other tenants that include Starbucks and Advance Auto Parts.

The site has a potential expansion and development opportunity with an undeveloped 1.3-acre pad site included in the sale.

Manokeek Village Center is situated on 15.82 acres at 7025 Berry Rd. in Accokeek, a high-growth submarket approximately 12 miles south of Washington, D.C.

It is on the “going home” side of Berry Road (Route 228) where it intersects with Indian Head Highway (Route 210), exposing the center to a combined 83,000 vehicles per day.
