Summary - 1 NEWTON LANE WIGSTON LE18 3SE
1 bed 1 bath Industrial Development
Versatile one‑acre industrial campus with modern services and gated parking.
Extensive site: circa 25,256 sq ft on approximately one acre
This substantial industrial development on Newton Lane offers an unusually large footprint (circa 25,256 sq ft across a one‑acre plot) with multiple interlinked buildings and secure, gated parking. The main two‑storey former hosiery factory retains high‑ceilinged, open-plan space and large arched windows that combine industrial character with practical headspace for warehousing, light manufacturing or office conversion. Refurbishments in 2016 replaced M&E and windows and added air conditioning throughout, so the property is largely move‑in ready for many commercial uses.
The site includes single‑storey steel‑frame units with north‑light roofing, an operational conveyor system to basement storage, and separate lock‑up accommodation — a flexible layout suited to distribution, storage, or a multi‑tenant headquarters. Excellent broadband and mobile signal, fast road links and proximity to major retail and commercial hubs (including Fosse Park) increase the site’s operational appeal for occupiers and investors.
Notable practical considerations are straightforward and important: tenure is listed as unknown and should be confirmed; the surrounding area includes residential housing, which may restrict noisy or heavy industrial activities and could affect planning for change of use. Although refurbished in 2016, ongoing maintenance of older brick structures and flat‑roof elements (corrugated metal and flat roofs on some units) should be budgeted for.
For developers and investors the property presents clear development potential — subdivision into multiple industrial/warehouse units, continued use as a single headquarter campus, or considered conversion where planning permits. Low local crime, very affluent area classification and good local amenities support a secure long‑term investment, while the site’s industrial character and modern services reduce immediate capital expenditure for fit‑out.
