Description
Location
He property is prominently situated on Davyfield Road, within an established and popular industrial and warehouse location on the outskirts of Blackburn.
The property benefits from excellent road connectivity, with Junction 5 of the M65 motorway approximately 1 mile away, providing convenient access to the wider regional and national motorway network.
The surrounding area is home to a number of established industrial and distribution occupiers, including Navigator Tissue, Staci and Sally Distribution, amongst others, reinforcing the location as a well-established commercial and logistics destination.

The property comprises a substantial detached warehouse facility extending to approximately 28,758 sq ft, set within a generous site of approximately 1.56 acres.
