PHILADELPHIA, Oct 13, 2026 - JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has completed the sale of Prickett Preserve, a 56,252-square-foot Wegmans-shadow anchored shopping center located at 930 Stony Hill Road in Yardley, Pennsylvania. Prickett Preserve holds the highest price per square foot for any shopping center deal ever sold in the Philadelphia MSA.
JLL represented the sellers, DeLuca Homes and Envision Land Use, in the transaction. L&B Realty Advisors LLP acquired the asset.
Completed between 2023 and 2024, Prickett Preserve is a 99%-leased neighborhood shopping center situated on 22.6 acres in Lower Makefield Township. Shadow anchored by a high-performing 90,427-square-foot Wegmans grocery store, the center features a complementary mix of food-and-beverage, medical, beauty and telecommunications tenants. Additional retailers include CVS Pharmacy, Chase Bank, Chipotle, Firebirds and Wonder.
The property serves as the retail centerpiece of the broader Prickett Preserve mixed-use development and benefits from its location near newly delivered multifamily housing, planned residential communities and nearby office developments. Strategically positioned at the interchange of Interstate 295 and Route 332, the asset provides access to major employment centers throughout Bucks County as well as Philadelphia, Trenton and Princeton. The location is surrounded by affluent residential neighborhoods and is supported by a dense consumer base with high household incomes. Nearby demand drivers include healthcare facilities, office campuses, country clubs and residential developments that continue to contribute to the area's long-term growth.
The JLL Capital Markets team was led by Senior Managing Director Jim Galbally and Senior Director JP Colussi, along with Director Patrick Higgins and Associate Brendan White.
"Prickett Preserve represented a rare opportunity to acquire a newly developed shopping center in one of the Philadelphia region's most established and affluent suburban communities," Galbally said. "Investors were attracted to the property's institutional-quality tenancy, strong daily-needs merchandising and the limited pipeline of comparable opportunities in the market."
