Description

On the instruction of the Joint Administrators of Clayton Glass Limited, Hilco are pleased to offer the long leasehold interest for this substantial industrial opportunity within Harelaw Industrial Estate in Stanley, County Durham.

DESCRIPTION
The property comprises a substantial two-bay industrial and manufacturing facility extending to approximately 75,074 sq ft (6,974.56 sq m) GIA, situated on a site of approximately 2.17 acres (0.88 hectares).

The principal manufacturing accommodation is of steel portal frame construction beneath pitched roofs, with solid concrete floors and an approximate clear eaves height of 6.3 metres. Loading access is provided via electrically operated roller shutter doors to the eastern and western elevations.

The manufacturing accommodation has historically supported heavy industrial operations and includes six overhead gantry cranes, together with an engineering workshop and a small steel-framed mezzanine which previously supported modular office accommodation.

To the front elevation is a two-storey office building of masonry construction providing a mixture of open-plan and cellular office accommodation, reception, staff canteen, kitchenette and WC facilities. The offices benefit from suspended ceilings, air conditioning and gas-fired central heating.

Externally, the wider estate is approached through a shared secure gatehouse from North Road. The long leasehold interest benefits from rights to park up to 42 vehicles, together with circulation and servicing areas associated with the premises.
