An affiliate of Endurance Real Estate Group, LLC (“Endurance”) and Thackeray Partners is pleased to announce the acquisition of 2075 Loucks Road, a 174,572 SF warehouse/distribution building located in West Manchester Township, Pennsylvania (“Property”). The Property is fully leased to York Wallcoverings, Inc. a global manufacturer of residential and commercial wallpaper headquartered in nearby York, PA. Endurance acquired the property from the former long-time owner of York Wallcoverings for $8,200,000.  Rock Commercial Real Estate, LLC, represented the Seller in this transaction.

Located in the Central PA region of the I-81/I-78 distribution corridor in Pennsylvania, one of the premier bulk distribution markets in the country, the Property is less than one mile from Route 30, providing easy access to the region’s most important highway systems via Interstate 83.  The Property is located within a day’s drive for more than 100 million people and six of the eight largest US markets.

Built in 1980, and expanded in 1986 and 1995, 2075 Loucks is a Class B industrial facility with brick and metal construction, ceiling heights up to 30’ clear, fluorescent lighting, 13 dock-high loading doors, 2 drive-in doors, and 4,000 amp, 3-phase electric service. York Wallcoverings, Inc., the largest wallpaper manufacturer in the United States, uses the facility for the manufacturing and distribution of its residential wallpaper, commercial wallcoverings, and wall decals.

Endurance’s purchase of 2075 Loucks  comes after a successful track record of investment in the York, PA and Central Pennsylvania areas, including:

485 St. Johns Church: A 453,000 SF class A bulk warehouse in Shiremanstown, PA, currently under construction anticipated to be delivered in August. For additional information see www.485dc.com.

515 Zarfoss Drive: Acquired and renovated by Endurance in 2012, and subsequently leased to The Wolf Organization, LLC, for building products distribution.

“We are excited to acquire such an exceptionally well located facility that is positioned to serve York Wallcoverings well for many years to come,” stated Jared Newman, Vice President of Acquisitions at Endurance. “This purchase, along with our recent purchase of Penn Warner Industrial Park in Bucks County, is consistent with our strategy of acquiring highly functional industrial assets in superior locations. We continue to seek additional acquisition and development opportunities in the industrial space.
