Capital Square has acquired one of its highest-quality communities in the last decade with its latest acquisition of Lyric at Norton Commons in Prospect, Ky. The firm acquired the 273-unit community from an undisclosed seller, on behalf of CS1031 Lyric at Norton Commons Apartments, DST. According to Yardi Matrix data, the previous owner was Bristol Development Group. Capital Square is looking to raise $68 million in equity from accredited investors with a minimum investment requirement of $50,000.
The Class A+ Lyric at Norton Commons offers one-, two- and three-bed units that average 956 square feet. The units were built with stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, in-unit washers and dryers, walk-in closets, and private patios or balconies. The community’s amenities include a fitness center, saltwater pool, resident lounge with a coffee bar, business center, pet spa, meditation space, movie room and multiple outdoor courtyards. Louis Rogers, founder & co-CEO of Capital Square, said in prepared remarks that Lyric at Norton Common is one of the highest-quality properties that the firm has acquired in the past 10 years.
Located at 11210 Peppermint St. in the Louisville suburb of Prospect, the community is roughly 15 miles away from the city and the Kentucky-Indiana border. The Louisville metro is home to a few Fortune 500 companies, including Humana Inc. and Yum! Brands, Inc. and other major employers like UPS, Ford Motor Co. and University of Louisville Health.
