Summary - Mercantile Road, Houghton le Spring, Tyne and Wear, DH4 5PH DH4 5PH
1 bed 1 bath Light Industrial
High-capacity industrial asset with extensive yard and strong road links.
28,813 sqft detached industrial unit, built 2015/16
A substantial, modern light industrial unit built 2015/16, offering 28,813 sqft of clear-span warehouse with 10m eaves and two level access doors. The building sits on a very large secure fenced yard with space for vehicle operations and approximately 42 car parking spaces. A 275kVA electrical supply, LED lighting, electrically operated roller shutters and on-site air compression make the unit immediately usable for medium-to-high power industrial processes.
The two-storey glazed reception and fully carpeted offices, meeting rooms and boardroom provide occupier-ready administrative space, while 12 EV charging points and good road links (adjacent to the A690 with quick access to the A19 and A1(M)) support distribution and logistics uses. The property is freehold and offered due to business relocation, so occupation can be straightforward for a purchaser intending continued operational use.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds in the area are very slow, which may affect cloud-based operations or high-volume data needs. The wider local area is described as ageing rural and social-renter dominated; businesses that need a nearby high-skilled residential catchment should assess local labour supply. Crime is average for the area. No flooding risk is recorded.
This unit suits owner-occupiers or investors seeking a turnkey industrial asset with strong transport links and substantial external yard. It also offers scope for adaptation or tenant fit-out where specific process requirements or upgraded IT connectivity are needed.
