This freehold industrial plot at Unit S4, Progress Road offers a rare cleared redevelopment opportunity in a well-established Leigh-on-Sea industrial park. Full planning permission (Southend City Council ref: 24/01934/FULM) is in place for reinstatement of a substantial single-storey warehouse, making the site suitable for logistics, storage or light industrial occupation.
The site was previously occupied by a large warehouse destroyed by fire in 2023; only the existing concrete slab remains. The approved scheme proposes c.189,815 sq ft overall, while the marked internal GIA on drawings is c.1,748 sqm (c.18,815 sq ft); prospective purchasers should verify floor areas, boundaries and any outstanding planning conditions before valuation and purchase.
Set back from the main road within a busy commercial streetscape, the plot benefits from good road links, excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and a gentle east-to-west slope aiding drainage. The cleared site and planning permission reduce lead time compared with a new application, but buyers must plan for full rebuild costs, services reinstatement and standard development requirements.
Offers are invited in the region of £950,000 (subject to contract). This freehold, cleared site will suit developers or occupiers seeking a near-term redevelopment within a sought-after industrial location, provided they account for rebuild costs and confirm technical details on inspection and due diligence.
