LOCATION:

Kenton is situated approximately 30 miles (47 minutes) north of Felixstowe Port and 16 miles north of the county town of Ipswich. The A140 is 7.6 miles to the west, connecting to the A14 within 11 miles. The A1120 is 3.5 miles to the south and provides access to the A12 at Yoxford, 16 miles to the east.

DESCRIPTION:

The property comprises a block of 10 adjoining and interconnecting warehouses which have been built over the last 48 years, the most recent units being developed in 1999.

The first buildings built in the 1970's and 1980's are generally of concrete frame construction with brick/blockwork and corrugated asbestos cladding to the elevations under insulated corrugated asbestos roofs. Some of these buildings were previously used for chilled storage and have been further insulated accordingly.

The two more modern warehouses built in the late 1990's are of steel portal frame construction with single skin fibre cement cladding.

The eaves heights range from 5.94m up to 8.25m.

All units have concrete floors and are served by roller shutter doors and modern LED lighting.

Ancillary accommodation comprises a pre-fabricated building which provides offices, restroom, toilets and kitchen facilities. The building is served by air conditioning, LED lighting and perimeter trunking.

The premises are served by extensive concrete yard space.

A public footpath runs along the northern boundary of the property.
