Sydney-based fund manager Folkestone has booked a bumper return after selling a Wollongong office building to a wealthy offshore investor for $46.1 million.

Folkestone bought the building at 43 Burelli Street four years ago for $27.5 million. Taking into account capital expenditure since then, the sale represents a 67.5 per cent premium to the property's acquisition price in 2013.
