This freehold distribution warehouse sits on a substantial 6.338-acre (2.56 ha) plot within Thurcroft Industrial Estate, offering significant outdoor yard and parking capacity and direct access to Junction 1 of the M18. The main building is a large, contemporary industrial unit with high ceilings, dock and level loading doors, and a mixture of modern and unrefurbished office accommodation plus staff toilets and kitchen area.
The site is suited to occupiers needing heavy logistics capacity, yard space for vehicle movements, or businesses seeking expansion potential on a single freehold site. Office space has been partly refurbished to a modern standard with a mix of open-plan and partitioned rooms; the remainder is unrefurbished and will need investment to bring up to the same standard.
Material drawbacks are clear: the surrounding area is classified as deprived with a high local crime rate, and the local demographic and school performance indicators may affect workforce recruitment for some businesses. Prospective buyers should allow budget for completing office refurbishment and factor in security measures given the estate’s context.
Practical benefits include off-street parking, dual-elevation loading yard, and no recorded flood risk. The property is marketed as a single freehold lot, making it attractive for owner-occupiers or investors targeting long-term operational control and external expansion on a large plot.
