Two of South Bristol’s longest-established industrial estates are to be refurbished after being acquired by new owners.
South Liberty Lane and Brookgate industrial estates have, between them, more than 300,000 sq ft of warehousing and industrial space in 34 units.
The estates, three miles south of the city centre off the Winterstoke Road, will benefit from the new South Bristol Link Road, which will improve access in both directions.
They have been bought by Rockspring Property Investment Managements on behalf of Cheshire West and Chester Council Pension Fund.
The new owners have appointed Knight Frank and Russell Property Consultants to market vacant space on the estates.
Russell Crofts, who heads the industrial team at Knight Frank in Bristol, said: “The construction of the new link road around the south of Bristol by the end of the year will create even better access from the two industrial estates onto the Ring Road and subsequently Bristol International Airport, the Portway and the M5. The two estates will have an unrivalled location in South Bristol.”
Rob Russell of Russell Property Consultants added: “The landlord’s refurbishment programme will make available units an attractive option and the estates will tick all the boxes for trade counter, distribution and light industrial/manufacturing companies.”
Rockspring was advised by Caisson Investment Management.
