Summary - 61-63, GATWICK ROAD RH10 9RD
1 bed 1 bath Warehouse
Income-producing sale-and-leaseback with strong headline yield and recent refurbishment.
Approx. 20,033 sq ft showroom and warehouse
A substantial freehold showroom and warehouse in Crawley, offered as a sale-and-leaseback to an established retailer on a new 10-year lease. The building extends to approximately 20,033 sq ft, arranged as a large open-plan ground-floor showroom with first-floor offices, mezzanine parts storage and secure rear yard. The tenant pays £245,000 pa, producing a net initial yield of 8.08% at the asking price of £2,850,000—an income-led opportunity for investors seeking immediate cashflow.
The unit was comprehensively refurbished in January 2025 and benefits from modern LED showroom lighting, internal and external CCTV, electric roller shutter doors and a newly carpeted rear section. The yard (approx. 0.14 acres) accommodates around 18 dedicated parking spaces with additional communal parking to the front, supporting operational logistics and customer access from Gatwick Road.
Key risks are clear and material: the investment is structured as a sale-and-leaseback with only ten years remaining on the new lease. Many mortgage lenders are likely to refuse lending against properties with short leases of this length, which could limit the buyer pool and affect financing options. The location sits within a high-crime area locally, which may influence insurance costs and tenant security requirements.
For investors focused on immediate rental income and a strong headline yield, this property provides an operational showroom/warehouse with recent refurbishment and fit-out. Buyers needing debt financing or seeking long lease security should factor in the short lease term and local security considerations before proceeding.
