Art Business Park sells as commercial units snapped up in ‘flight to quality’

The pair of commercial units at Art Business Park on Sankey Valley Industrial Estate, both with existing long-term tenants, were listed for sale as investment properties by Keppie Massie.

Unit Two, which comprises 1,000 sq ft off Junction Lane in the town, has now been sold to private investors, while the larger Unit One, measuring 1,700 sq ft, has seen major interest in recent weeks and is now expected to go under offer within days.

Art Business Park is located within 30 minutes’ drive of both Liverpool and Manchester and less than two miles from the M6 and M62 motorways.

Tim Garnett, head of commercial at Keppie Massie, says the level of enquiries reflects the growing trend for occupiers and investors to seek high quality stock in good locations.

He said: “There has been huge interest from potential buyers in the last remaining unit, particularly from investors and SIPPs, who see the long-term value of a quality product in an excellent location, connected to major local markets and the national transport network.

“This flight to quality is a clear trend and it offers encouragement in the wider market that superior developments such as Art Business Park will continue to maintain their appeal to the right buyers.”
