A retail plaza in tony Fairfield County has fetched $58 million.

King’s Crossing, located in Fairfield near the Bridgeport line next to the Fairfield Metro station on the Metro North train line, was bought by TA Realty from an LLC controlled by Nuveen, the real estate arm of pension giant TIAA.

Nuveen had bought the property at 330-350 Grasmere Ave. for $57.5 million in 2012, according to town records.

The property itself is 82,000 square feet in size, and is 97 percent leased according to JLL, which marketed the property on behalf of Nuveen. The shopping center was built in 2011 and is anchored by a Whole Foods store. Other major tenants include CVS, Petco, Five Guys, Sleep Number and Chipotle. A Home Depot location built next door in 2001 and a locally-owned fitness club also help drive traffic to the property.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the seller was led by Jose Cruz, Kevin O’Hearn, Danny Finkle, Michael Oliver, Steve Simonelli, Andrew Scandalios and Grace Braverman.

“We’re thrilled to have worked with notable institutional firms such as the seller and TA Realty on the sale of this prestigious asset,” O’Hearn said in a statement. “With Whole Foods as its anchor and a national tenant roster, King’s Crossing is a premier retail property in this region. We had a tremendous response from investors and expect the buyer to do very well with it.”
