LPC West, the West Coast arm of national real estate firm Lincoln Property Company, along with partner Angelo Gordon, has acquired 1720 El Camino Real, a Class A, medical office building near several major transportation hubs, including BART, Caltrain, Highway 101, and the San Francisco International Airport.
The three-story building encompasses more than 100,000 square feet on nearly four acres and is located directly adjacent to Sutter Health Mills-Peninsula Hospital, a $640 million, 450,000-square-foot hospital built in 2011.
LPC West and Angelo Gordon are planning a multi-million-dollar renovation of 1720 El Camino Real, including renovations to the lobby, courtyards, and common corridors, as well as upgrades to the buildings exterior and the addition of new interior and exterior signage.
The building is currently 85 percent leased to a variety of healthcare tenants. Medical groups with larger footprints include Lucile Packard Childrens Hospital (Stanford Childrens Health), Sutter Health, DaVita Dialysis Clinic, as well as Mid-Peninsula Endoscopy Center, part of Sutter Health’s Surgery Center Division.
With a strong mix of institutional and medical users, adjacency to a world-class hospital, and accessibility from BART, Caltrain, and both the 101 and 280 Freeways, 1720 El Camino Real is poised for continued success, said Brandon Wang, Executive Vice President of LPC West. We are looking forward to implementing sizable improvements that will transform the property into a leading, Class A medical office building.
Several nearby restaurant and retail amenities include the Burlingame Plaza, a 100,000 square foot shopping center that features a drug store, grocery store, and small shops. New housing has also been built near the property in recent years, with hundreds of new units set to be built following approval from the City of Burlingame.
