Vashon Island Fire & Rescue (VIFR) has sold its Station 59, an out-of-service and nonfunctional north-end station located at 11983 Vashon Hwy SW.
The building, listed with Windermere Real Estate, went for considerably over its listing price of $150,000 after it received 11 offers, said Fire Chief Matt Vinci.
According to property records, the building’s new owners, Vashon Owl Response Team LLC, paid $340,000 for the station, in a sale recorded on Sept. 11.
The LLC, according to records, was formed in August.
Its registered agent, Peter Meyers, replied to a request for comment via text, expressing gratitude that VIFR accepted the offer made by his LLC.
“We expected this to be a very competitive listing and [VIFR] obviously benefitted from the fact that we were required to compete with many other significant offers,” Meyers wrote.
