The ranch said Thursday that it received an unsolicited offer for Parker Square in early July and expects the sale to become final in September.
The 17,642-square-foot Parker Square was built in 1987 and currently houses 22 retail and commercial office tenants.
Parker Ranch trustee Tom Whittemore said the sale will enable the ranch to reinvest in other projects, including the Waimea Town Center Plan.
The plan is a comprehensive long-term vision for the development of Parker Ranch lands in Waimea, he said. Parker Ranch is one of the largest ranches in the United States, covering 225,000 acres across the Big Island.
