BOSTON–West Shore LLC, a multifamily real estate investment firm, recently completed the acquisition of Isla Antigua, a unique 249-unit apartment community located in St. Augustine, Florida. The addition of this asset marks West Shore’s 29th acquisition and its 13th in the state of Florida. According to a release the company’s expanding national footprint now includes 27 residential properties with 8,361 apartment units and well over $1 billion in assets under management.

“We are excited to further expand our footprint in Florida with this remarkable asset in St. Augustine,” said West Shore Chairman Steven P. Rosenthal. “The acquisition of Isla Antigua is a great example of our real estate investment strategy.”

Isla Antigua, located at 655 West Marina Cove Drive, has over 850 feet of Intracoastal Waterway frontage in St. Augustine, FL, and is the only multifamily asset built on Anastasia Island since 1984. The newly constructed community is in an ideal location with quick access to retail, entertainment, historic Downtown St. Augustine, and the city’s largest job centers. The property’s unique waterfront outdoor amenities include a resort-style pool with private cabanas, an outdoor kitchen with grilling and dining areas, a sunset beach retreat with fire pit lounges, and a private dock with a kayak launch system. The grand clubhouse features billiards, game, and media rooms, a full business center, and a professional fitness club that includes interactive cardio equipment, a yoga and spin studio, and an indoor rotating rock-climbing wall. The community’s apartments boast breathtaking waterfront views and open concept floor plans with modern kitchens, high-end finishes, oversized closets, and private balconies.

“Isla Antigua is a very valuable addition to our growing portfolio,” said Lee Rosenthal, President of West Shore. “We are proud of our expansion in Florida and we expect to continue our significant growth both in Florida and nationally as well.”

In addition to Isla Antigua, West Shore’s other multifamily properties in Florida include: Grande Oasis at Carrollwood in Tampa, Deerwood Village in Ocala, The District at Clearwater in Clearwater, The Point at Naples and Belvedere at Quail Run in Naples, Savannahs at James Landing and Veridian Townhomes in Melbourne, and Live Oaks at Killearn, 2305 at Killearn, and The Greens at Old St. Augustine in Tallahassee.
