Alco Avenue property sells for $1.8 million

Tal Properties LLC, represented by Sidney Lejeune, has purchased 15 lots and the buildings on them at 10861 Alco Avenue—which is the listed address for Oak Woods Apartments—for $1.8 million, according to a property transfer filed Tuesday with the East Baton Rouge Clerk of Court. Fireside Duplexes LLC, represented by Wayne Breaux, was the seller. Neither the buying nor selling parties could be reached for further comment on the sale as of this afternoon’s deadline. Meanwhile, in another million-dollar transaction filed with the clerk’s office, a 10-acre tract on Old Hammond Highway sold late last week for approximately $1.3 million. The buyer, Timmons International LLC, and the seller, Regional Real Estate LLC, were both represented by John and Billy Timmons, brothers and co-owners of Louisiana-based Timmons Truck Center, which has locations in Baton Rouge, Winnfield and Alexandria. In another unrelated deal, three acres of land at 10604 Coursey Blvd. were purchased for $425,000 by City Center LLC, represented by S. Kent Walker. The seller was Walter Property Investments LLC, a Tampa, Fla.-based company represented by Robert Walter. —Staff report
