Built in 2000, the property is located at 2124 Cheshire Bridge Road NE, in the Lindbergh area northeast of downtown. National multifamily firm RADCO acquired the eight-building asset from Bell Partners for $55.5 million in 2016, according to Yardi Matrix. The company recently completed a multimillion-dollar upgrade that repositioned the property and brought new amenities.

Radius Cheshire Bridge offers one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with features such as oversized walk-in closets. Amenities include a fitness center with a climbing wall, saltwater pool and outdoor pet park. The community is located near Interstate 85 with convenient access to Buckhead and Midtown Atlanta.

Deal partners

RADCO said in a statement that the deal, which was brokered by CBRE, marked the company’s 67^th successful property sale during the current real estate cycle. Last month, Greystar acquired City Park Clearwater, a 228-unit community in Clearwater, Fla., from RADCO for $43.5 million.

In September, Greystar acquired three Atlanta-area properties from RADCO for a total of $138.7 million, including the 255-unit Ashford Ridenour, the 296-unit Bridges of Kennesaw, and the 240-unit The Landing at Acworth, all located in Kennesaw, Ga.

Greystar, which has roughly $35.5 billion in assets under management, owns more than 146,000 multifamily units and and student housing beds. RADCO focuses on acquisition and redevelopment in the Southeast and Central regions of the U.S. and has invested in roughly 30,000 units over the past decade.
