Newman Properties Purchase of 87-90 Winthrop Shore Dr, Winthrop, MA

Winthrop, MA- Newman Properties’ affiliate Dighton Gardens LLC has purchased a 38-unit, residential property at 87-90 Winthrop Shore Dr, Winthrop, MA. This is the first residential property purchased in Winthrop, as they look to expand their portfolio North of Boston. The purchase price for the property was $6,000,000. Financing was provided by Hanscom Federal Credit Union. This acquisition was part of a 1031 tax exchange.

This asset is broken up into two neighboring buildings, with 19 units in each structure. A paved courtyard joins the two addresses to create the feeling of a singular complex. At 5.3 miles from downtown boston, this asset features quick access to downtown and the airport, while providing beachfront living with spectacular views for the residents. The buildings consist of a total of 11-2 bedrooms, 5-1 bedrooms, and 23 studios.

Matthew Newman, Principal and CEO of Newman Properties, commented that after 15+ years of success in the East Boston market, the company is looking to expand into towns North of Boston and have started with Winthrop and Salem. There are colleges, hospitals, and quaint yet bustling downtown areas. He feels these oceanfront communities have tremendous appeal and value for people moving out of the immediate Boston neighborhoods.

Settled in 1630, Winthrop is one of the oldest communities in the country. It was named for John Winthrop; a governor of Massachusetts and John’s son Deane Winthrop’s home, built in 1637 is now an historic site and museum. On one side of Winthrop there is a panoramic view of the outer harbor and on the other a view of the Boston Skyline and the inner harbor. In between, we have the look of a quaint and friendly New England town with shops, parks, marinas, inns and miles of lovely beaches. An excellent public transportation system brings people to Winthrop from Boston in just 20-minutes and from the airport in five. Winthrop is also just a short boat ride away from many communities on both the North and South Shore.

With a distinguished portfolio of residential and commercial properties, Newman Properties and its affiliated companies, own and manage over 500 residential units as well as numerous office and retail properties. The company has bought and sold over $500 million dollars worth of property in the areas surrounding Boston, the South Shore, and now the North Shore! Currently, the company has projects in the pipeline that include condo conversions, renovation and add-value projects, as well as buy and hold projects. In addition, the company is overseeing multiple developments, including ground-up construction projects, and is seeking new acquisitions.

Newman Properties, which purchased seven buildings in Onset back in October, has purchased two more Onset buildings, adding a total of ten new apartments to the company’s portfolio. The properties are located at 4-6 W Central Ave. and 17 Union Ave., and both were purchased directly from the seller without a broker. “We decided to add to our portfolio in this area because we felt these properties would fit in nicely with our existing portfolio in the Onset and Buzzards Bay area,” said Shoshana Baraschi-Ehrlich, the marketing coordinator for the company. In October, the company purchased seven buildings in Onset. With the addition of the two new buildings, the company now owns 68 apartments and 12 commercial rentals in Onset, and Baraschi-Ehrlich said the company will likely continue to expand its holdings in the area. Only one unit owned by the company in Onset is currently available: A small studio apartment ringing in at $1,300 per month, including utilities.
