Summary - UNIT 3, SANDALL LANE DN3 1RA
1 bed 1 bath Warehouse
Initial rent £62,500 pa (circa £9.40/sq ft)
This is a high-yield, single-let industrial investment in Kirk Sandall Industrial Estate, offered on a sale-and-leaseback basis. The freehold comprises two detached workshop units (4,777 sq ft total) on a large secure yard, producing an initial rent of £62,500 pa and reflecting a quoted net initial yield of 8.86% (offers in excess of £700,000). The tenant, a long-established truck repairs operator, shows tangible trading assets in recent accounts.
The site’s low density (circa 17%) and extensive external hardstanding are strong practical advantages for HGV operations, storage or future redevelopment potential. Buildings include vehicle-specific fit-out such as an inspection pit and rolling road, plus generous eaves (c.6.2–6.7m) and multiple loading doors, supporting continued industrial use without immediate capital expenditure.
Buyers should note material lease and property considerations: the investment is let on a new 10-year lease from completion with a tenant-only break at year five and RPI-linked review at year five. Ten years' unexpired term and the tenant break will restrict some lenders and can reduce mortgage availability. One unit has an asbestos-clad roof — this requires consideration for maintenance, compliance and potential replacement costs. The lease is FRI by photographic schedule of condition, placing repair responsibility on the tenant but requiring purchaser diligence.
Overall this asset suits yield-seeking investors or occupational buyers seeking significant yard and HGV-capable accommodation. The lot offers immediate income, operational yard capacity and medium-term value uplift potential — balanced by a relatively short contractual term, break option and some fabric works to address asbestos and ongoing upkeep.
