The involved parties did not release the purchase price.
The property had been owned by the city of Kasaan, a village of about 50 people on Prince of Wales Island, 30 miles west of Ketchikan.
The buyer, the STG Group of Santa Rosa, Calif., owns nearly a half-million square feet of commercial and industrial property in Anchorage.
"This sale speaks to the stability of state of Alaska leases in Juneau," said Carlton Smith, owner of the Juneau-based Carlton Smith Co., which co-brokered the sale.
The fact that the state is one of STG's tenants in the Anchorage properties was a factor in the selection process, according to a Jones Lang LaSalle representative. The international real estate firm also helped broker the deal.
The properties were advertised in a nationwide marketing campaign directed toward institutional buyers who owned government-occupied assets.
