Frome warehouse snapped up

A modern, detached warehouse/workshop with offices on a Frome trading estate has been snapped up.

The property at 6 Whitworth Road on the Marston Trading Estate was acquired by a private purchaser in a deal brokered by property consultancy Myddelton & Major.

Guide price for the 3,530 sq ft (320.02 sq m) property was £295,000 freehold.

Myddelton & Major Commercial Agency Surveyor Gary Mead said: “I wasn’t surprised to see the strong interest in this unit.

“Demand for this type of commercial property continues to outstrip supply and this sale again demonstrates that the market for modern units remains buoyant.”

Whitworth Road is situated on the long established Marston Trading Estate, the main industrial/business location in Frome.

Frome is situated in a strategic location on the Somerset/Wiltshire border. The estate is just a mile from Frome town centre and located on the southern outskirts and links with the A361 bypass via the B3092, providing access to Shepton Mallet to the west and Trowbridge to the north.

Wessexfields Retail Park abuts the Trading Estate, which is home to major occupiers such as MacDonalds, KFC, Carphone Warehouse, Halfords and Homebase.

The property is a modern, detached warehouse/workshop including office space on the ground floor, with a full mezzanine floor providing a range of offices, kitchen & WCs.
