Well-specified logistics unit with strong road links and generous yard space.
36,943 sq ft warehouse on a 1.94-acre self-contained site
A modern, detached distribution warehouse offering 36,943 sq ft of clear industrial space on a self-contained 1.94-acre site. The building benefits from 6m eaves, two level-access loading doors, full sprinkler protection and comprehensive internal lighting — features that suit high-throughput logistics, light manufacturing or multi-bay storage operations. Two-storey office accommodation is provided for on-site management and support functions.
The site includes a large concrete yard and separate parking for 51 vehicles, supporting frequent HGV and staff movements. Mains services are connected and the unit has convenient access to the M65 via Junction 7 (approx. 3 miles), giving straightforward regional distribution routes across Lancashire and beyond.
Practical considerations are clear: the property sits in a very deprived, high-crime area with constrained local demographics, and broadband speeds are slow — factors that may affect staff recruitment, shift patterns and certain high-bandwidth operations. The unit is offered freehold at £3,200,000; purchasers should factor in location-related operating costs and security measures when assessing value.
Overall this is a robust, well-specified industrial asset with strong physical logistics credentials and obvious potential for owner-occupiers or investors targeting distribution and light manufacturing in Lancashire’s industrial corridor.
