Ryden LLP and B8 Real Estate have completed the sale at a significant premium on the asking price of £2.46m. The deal reflects a Net Initial Yield of 3.8%.

The modern detached warehouse is situated on a one-acre site on Fourth Avenue within ‘The Village’ area. It is let to Evri, previously known as Hermes, on a six-year lease expiring in June 2028 at a rent of £117,677 per annum.

The property was sold on behalf of a private client while the buyer was a private property trust.

“The deal represents a very successful outcome for the client and highlights the continued demand for good quality assets in core locations – particularly Trafford Park,” said Joe Sinclair of B8 Real Estate.

He added: ‘Having advised the client throughout the full cycle of their business plan, we are delighted with the strong pricing achieved.  The property was initially acquired off-market by our investment team. Our agency team then worked with the client to advise on a refurbishment programme and were able to sign up Evri as a tenant at a record rent for a second-hand property of this type.”
