- Two build-to-suit units: 242,000 sq ft and 491,000 sq ft
- Outline planning consent granted for development
- Prime motorway access: close to M1 Junction 29A
- Huge plot with room for yards and HGV circulation
- Modern warehouse design with high ceilings
- Tenure not confirmed; investigate title and covenants
- Broadband speeds slow; not ideal for heavy office IT
- Local area: average crime and mixed socio-economic profile
A rare opportunity to secure large-scale logistics space at Nova, Markham Vale, immediately adjacent to Junction 29A of the M1. Outline planning consent is in place for two new-build units of 242,000 sq ft and 491,000 sq ft, offered on a build-to-suit basis to meet occupier specifications. The site benefits from high ceilings, modern warehouse design and extensive circulation and parking areas suitable for large distribution operations.
The setting includes substantial open land and woodland edges, offering a degree of landscape buffer around the park. Flood risk is reported as none, and road connectivity is the principal operational advantage for regional or national distribution hubs. The plot size is very large, allowing flexibility for yard space, HGV manoeuvring and bespoke occupation layouts.
Important considerations: planning is at outline stage only, so detailed consent and final design approvals will be required before construction. Tenure details are not confirmed and broadband speeds are slow, which may affect office-type uses on site. Local area metrics are mixed: crime and deprivation are average, and surrounding communities include social-rented neighbourhoods. These factors should be weighed when assessing labour supply and local stakeholder engagement.
For investors or occupiers seeking scale and location, this site offers clear development potential with strategic motorway access. Owners or occupiers should factor in delivery lead times, infrastructure fit-out costs, and confirmation of tenure and final planning conditions before commitment.
