LondonMetric Property has announced that it has sold 1 Carter lane, an office development near St. Pauls in London, for £124.8m net (£138.8m gross adjusted for rent free deductions). They expect the deal to complete in January 2015.
The 129,081 sq ft property is 73% let by floor area to MFS and SEB and LondonMetric is currently in detailed negotiations with a potential tenant regarding the letting of the last two remaining floors.
