Lease taken on Cambridge industrial unit

Ben Green, Director at Barker Storey Matthews

Barker Storey Matthews Cambridge office has let a commercial unit at the Fielding Industrial Estate in Fulbourn, South Cambridgeshire to Pilkington Automotive Ltd – the specialist supplier of glass technology to the automotive industry.

The fully refurbished industrial unit gives 15,875 sq ft of accommodation in total with office space across two floors and an open plan warehouse with roller-shutter access.

Fielding Industrial Estate is to the east of Cambridge city with access to the A11 east to Norwich and points east and west on the A14 and south to the M11 motorway. Other commercial occupiers on site include Prior Scientific Instruments Ltd and Cambridge Removals & Storage.

Ben Green, Director at Barker Storey Matthews commented, “There is a squeeze on the availability of industrial units of this level of offering in South Cambridge.

“Tenants remain in-situ in such units once established given the scarcity of commercial property of this profile so close to Cambridge city yet also on its onward road network.”

The industrial unit was let on a 10 year lease at a rent of £67,469 per annum. Barker Storey Matthews acted on behalf of the landlord with Cushman & Wakefield representing Pilkington Automotive Ltd.
