CUPERTINO — Apple has widened its shopping spree for South Bay real estate by paying $216 million to buy two office buildings on Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, in a deal that further cements its Bay Area presence.

The iPhone maker has now paid about $1.1 billion to purchase office properties in Santa Clara County so far this year. The purchases began in late June and have continued into this week.

A group whose principal executives include Peter Pau, president of Sand Hill Property Co. and the driving force behind some of the Bay Area’s most high-profile redevelopment efforts, sold the property to Apple.
