A limited liability company headed by Litchfield businessman Mark Greenberg recently sold a 32,575-square-foot office building in Farmington for $4.5 million.
The buyer was a limited liability company headed by the president of a large chain of Valvoline service stations.
Litchfield-based Two Mile Road Realty Associates LLC sold 8 Two Mile Road to Barnard Park LLC in a $4.5 million deal logged by the town on May 10.
The seller, headed by Greenberg, paid $3.3 million for the two-story, brick office building in 2005. Greenberg, a prolific businessman and real estate investor, came into the public spotlight during unsuccessful runs for Congress in Connecticut’s 5th District in 2010 and 2012.
Barnard Park park’s Hartford address is shared with Galena Associates, a company owning a large string of Valvoline service stations in the Northeast. The buyer’s principal, Michael J. Ferri, launched Galena Associates with his brother, Paul J. Ferri. State business records list Paul J. Ferri as principal of Galena and Michael Ferri as its agent.
An online promotion for Valvoline franchises lists Michael Ferri as president of Galena, a chain of 102 Valvoline Instant Oil Change stores.
Attempts to reach Ferri were not immediately successful Wednesday.
