Brixton buys £14m Manchester business park

Property investment fund Brixton has purchased the Severnside Trading Estate in Trafford Park, Manchester from Morley Fund Management for £14.95m.

The estate totals 204,000 sq ft divided into 22 units, let on 16 leases with 2 units (22,167 sq ft) vacant and subject to rent guarantees for 12 months.

The total rent including these guarantees is approximately £900,000 pa and the purchase price reflects a net initial yield of 5.7%, 6.1% equivalent yield and 6.7% reversionary yield.

The largest occupiers include T&K Gallagher, Loomis Cash Management, Doco International and Wolseley UK with Unipart, Komfort Workspace, Central Tyre and Interlink Express also represented.

The property is located opposite Brixton’s 340,000 sq ft Longwood Estate within Trafford Park.

This purchase is the company’s third acquisition in the area since May last year.

Brixton was advised by CB Richard Ellis with King Sturge acting for Morley.
