RARE 13 ACRE FREEHOLD OPPORTUNITY NEAR LICHFIELD BROUGHT TO MARKET

Industrial/Warehouse News

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold site in a highly strategic Staffordshire location has been brought to market, offering significant potential for a range of commercial uses, subject to planning.

The land and buildings at the former Bromley Hayes Garden Centre, located on Shaw Lane, Riley Hill, Lichfield (WS13 8HW), extend to approximately 13 acres across three titles, presenting a versatile opportunity for occupiers, investors and developers.

The site occupies a strategic position near Lichfield, benefitting from excellent connectivity to the A515, A38, A5 and M6, and is located in close proximity to Fradley Distribution Park, one of the region’s key logistics hubs.

Existing accommodation on site totals approximately 21,387 sq ft, together with a further 11,500 sq ft of covered external space. The property already benefits from planning consent for change of use to Class E (offices) and B2 (industrial), alongside additional consent for 5,812 sq ft of further floor space.

The scale, location and existing planning position combine to offer significant flexibility, with the site well suited to a range of alternative uses including industrial, open storage or redevelopment schemes, subject to securing the necessary consents.

Caine Gilchrist commented:

“This is a genuinely rare opportunity to acquire a freehold site of scale in such a well-connected and established location. With existing planning in place and further development potential, the site offers a wide range of options for occupiers and developers looking to deliver a bespoke scheme in a proven logistics and commercial corridor.”

Freehold opportunities of this size and flexibility remain scarce in the region, particularly those offering both immediate use and longer-term redevelopment potential.
