Constructed in 2007, the two-story building occupies a 2.29-acre site. The Joint Replacement Institute leases the majority of the second floor. The buyers plan to occupy the vacant first level.

The seller, Special Acquisitions IV Inc., is an affiliate of Capital Bank, which foreclosed on the property last year.

Andrew DeSalvo and Matt Stepan of Premier Commercial Inc. represented the seller and Michael Metcalf of Amerivest Realty represented the buyer.

The purchase entity, 1250 Pine Ridge LLC, mortgaged the property to Branch Banking and Trust Co. for $5 million.
