Princeton, NJ – Mercer Oak Realty, a leader in Princeton Area Commercial Real Estate, represented The Newgrange School in the purchase of a 31,500 sf building.  Mercer Oak’s affiliate, Princeton Property Management, is managing the reconstruction of the new facility at 800 North Road in Hopewell, NJ.

The 31,500 sf at 800 North Road gives Newgrange, The Laurel School and the Anne Robinowitz Education Center space to expand their operations.  The new facility offers students and faculty an excellent place to teach and learn.

Aubrey Haines, Mercer Oak’s CEO said: “The Newgrange Family of Schools has a tremendous leader in CEO Tim Viands. He had a vision for the new facility and never wavered from that goal.  Tim and our legal folks, Fritz Cammerzell and Ryan Kennedy, were able to successfully get this property approved for the School’s use and the transaction closed in the most challenging environment in decades.”

Newgrange’s Head and CEO, Tim Viands, said: “Mercer Oak was a key member of our team to help Newgrange and Laurel School acquire this new home, which will be a state-of-the-art facility for our students and faculty.  A special thanks to Aubrey Haines and his team for both brokerage but also construction management services provided by their affiliate company Princeton Property Management”.
