Baton Rouge specialty skin surgeon Dr. Stephen Antrobus has purchased a 48,000-square-foot office pad in the Jefferson Place Office Park at 7722 Office Park Blvd., located just off Jefferson Highway between Corporate Boulevard and Essen Lane, with plans for a new office.
Antrobus purchased the site for $445,000 from RC Marketing, a limited liability company whose manager is Dr. Richard Cangelosi, a local dentist who had formerly planned to build an office on the site before opting for another location, says Mark Hebert of Kurz & Hebert Commercial Real Estate, who represented Cangelosi in the deal.
“This property was only on the market for a couple of months, which says a lot about the strength of the market right now,” Hebert says, noting the site also has visibility from Interstate 12. “It’s really hard to find a ready-to-build lot in the center of the city like this, and that’s why it sold so quickly.”
Beau Box with Beau Box Commercial Real Estate represented Antrobus in the deal. Antrobus, who operates Mohs Surgery Specialists in an office suite at 7525 Picardy Ave., could not be reached by this afternoon’s deadline for additional details. Hebert says the surgeon intends to develop an office on the site, but it’s not clear if it will be a second office or a relocation.
Cangelosi purchased a 1.1-acre plot in the Jefferson Place Office Park in January of last year for $380,000.
