BALTIMORE, MD (September 1, 2020) – Klein Enterprises and St. John Properties, Inc., announce the sale of 7152 Windsor Mill Road, a single-story, 58,000 square foot commercial flex building located in the Woodlawn section of Baltimore County for $8.5 million. The property is currently fully-leased and occupied by Leidos.

Bob Filley of Marcus & Millichap represented the seller, Klein Enterprises and St. John Properties, the buyer, was self-represented.

Constructed in 1985, the asset is contained on a nearly five-acre lot, features 16-foot ceiling heights, two dock loading doors and is surrounded by a free parking field that offers a 5.19 vehicle per 1,000 square foot parking ratio. Situated at the intersection of Windsor Boulevard and Lord Baltimore Drive, the building is less than three miles from Interstate 695, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the Social Security Administration.

Headquartered in Reston, VA, Leidos is a Fortune 500 information technology, engineering, and science solutions and services leader that serves the defense, intelligence, homeland security, civil and health markets.

Klein Enterprises purchased the property in 2018. The sale is consistent with Klein Enterprise’s approach to balance shorter-term opportunistic transactions with longer term holds across its diverse portfolio. Klein has structured its portfolio to benefit from numerous market changes that the company had anticipated prior to the pandemic, including greater demand for suburban lifestyle multifamily and a subsequent need for storage, a preference for well-located Class B office/flex over Class A office and the continued need for essential retail.

“This was a tremendous opportunity to acquire an asset below replacement value, with a stable and creditworthy single-use tenant in place and signed to a long-term lease,” stated Sean Doordan, Senior Vice President, Leasing & Acquisitions for St. John Properties. “We were initially attracted to this building based on its location adjacent to our 82-acre Windsor Corporate Park which also includes our corporate headquarters and our 10-acre Windsor Office Park. We are extremely confident about the long-term value of this submarket. In addition, our company has a strong relationship with Leidos given its tenancy in several other projects in the St. John Properties portfolio.”

“The successful execution was made possible by our team’s strict adherence to our investment philosophy, and our diligence in the face of unprecedented challenges brought on by the pandemic,” said Daniel Klein, President of Klein Enterprises.
