WINSFORD INDUSTRIAL ESTATE UNIT CHANGES HANDS FOR £2.55M

Legat Owen has completed the investment sale of an 33,585 sq ft industrial unit on Winsford Industrial Estate to St. John’s High Income Property Fund, in a deal worth £2.55million.

Located at the northern end of Road One, the property is let to Antalis Limited for a term expiring on 28th September 2023 at a rent passing of £180,000 per annum (£5.36 per sq ft). The established estate is home to companies including Tiger Trailers, Henkel, Iveco and Advanced Medical Solutions Group.

Speaking about the sale, Matt Pochin, director at Legat Owen, commented:

The industrial investment market continues to attract buyers even with short term income. The general lack of stock and high level of enquiries supports purchases where previously buyers would have been mindful of up-and-coming lease expires.

David Nairn of Dana, acting for St John’s, continued:

This was an attractive purchase for the fund offering a strong and improving location with high eaves giving further flexibility in the buoyant distribution sector.

The investment objective of the Fund is to carry on a property investment business and manage cash raised from investors for investment in the property investment business with the aim of providing high income and long-term capital appreciation with a bias towards income.
