Seattle e-commerce giant Amazon on Thursday purchased a 93-acre Westborough lot with an industrial office park for $65 million, according to the Worcester South District Registry of Deeds, with plans to include at least a last-mile fulfillment center. 

The massive property at 4400 Computer Drive is located five miles down the road from the Amazon Robotics Innovation Hub, which opened in October.

In March, Atlantic Management Corp., the Framingham developer which constructed the Amazon Robotics center, submitted an application to the Westborough Planning Board to reposition the 93-acre property at 4400 Computer Dr. with a new 221,000-square-foot building to be used as a last mile e-commerce fulfillment center.

Amazon.com, lists 4400 Computer Dr. as an Amazon Last Mile Delivery Station.

The property on Computer Drive is a master-planned, two-story corporate campus with buildings designed for office, lab, and biotech space, according to a description on Carruth Commercial Real Estate Solutions’ website.

Carruth, who was the seller of the Computer Drive site on Thursday, has owned the property since 1994 when the firm bought it for $10.3 million, according to the registry of deeds. Included on the campus is more than 150,000 square feet of space, which is expandable to more than a million square feet, per the website.

It currently houses Bank of New York Mellon Wealth Management and Prudential Mutual Fund Services, per their respective websites.

Amazon has another last-mile delivery warehouse on Goddard Memorial Drive in Worcester, which also sold Dec. 23 to a Boston real estate management firm. Amazon is a tenant of that property, not an owner.

Amazon didn't return requests for comment on Wednesday morning.
