RARE 13 ACRE FREEHOLD SITE OFFERS ROOM FOR BUSINESS GROWTH NEAR LICHFIELD

Industrial/Warehouse News

Businesses looking to consolidate their operations or secure space for future expansion are being encouraged to consider a rare 13-acre freehold opportunity near Lichfield. FHP Property Consultants is inviting further interest in the former Bromley Hayes Garden Centre on Shaw Lane, Riley Hill, which extends to approximately 12.956 acres across three freehold titles.

The property provides approximately 21,387 sq ft of existing accommodation, together with a further 11,500 sq ft of covered external space and substantial surrounding land. Its combination of buildings and external space could provide a practical solution for businesses requiring offices, workshops, storage, vehicle parking, equipment areas and room for longer-term growth within a single self-contained site.

The property occupies a strategic location close to the A515, with convenient access to the A38, A5 and M6. Fradley Park, one of Staffordshire’s principal industrial and logistics locations, is also nearby.

Caine Gilchrist, Associate Director at FHP Property Consultants, commented:

“One of the biggest challenges facing expanding businesses is finding a site that provides enough space for their current operation while also allowing them to plan for future growth.

“Bromley Hayes offers that flexibility. The existing buildings provide useful operational accommodation, while the wider site creates options for parking, storage, circulation and further development.

“It could suit a contractor, plant and equipment business, builders’ merchant, engineering company or another occupier looking to bring offices, storage, workshops and external operations together in one location.

“The site is also likely to be of interest to developers, investors and specialist operators considering industrial, storage or open storage opportunities, subject to the necessary consents.”

The property benefits from an established commercial planning position, including consent for office, storage and ancillary industrial accommodation, together with additional floorspace. This provides a useful foundation for interested parties assessing the site, although occupiers should make their own enquiries regarding their specific proposed use.

Caine added:

“Freehold sites of this scale are increasingly difficult to find, particularly those with existing buildings and access to major transport routes.

“At a guide price of £2 million, the property offers buyers the opportunity to acquire almost 13 acres and shape the site around their operational requirements. We are keen to speak with businesses and developers who may not previously have considered the property but require space, flexibility and long-term control.”
