The site benefits from convenient road connectivity, with straightforward access to the A666 and onward links to the M65 motorway, enabling efficient routes across East Lancashire and to the wider North West including Blackburn, Preston and Manchester. Local amenities and services are available in Darwen town centre, with broader retail, business and transport connections in Blackburn.
Description
The property comprises a substantial distribution and manufacturing facility extending to approximately 49,394 sq ft (GIA), with ancillary ground-floor office accommodation.
The warehouse is of steel portal frame construction with profile steel-clad elevations and roof, incorporating translucent roof panels. It benefits from motion-sensor LED lighting, gas heating, and an apex height of approximately 8m, with an internal eaves height of around 6m.
The warehouse provides largely open-plan accommodation and is served by four level-access roller shutter doors (each approximately 5m high). Externally, the property is complemented by a secure front yard of circa 0.6 acres, enclosed by palisade fencing, with additional yard space and parking to the side and rear.
The office accommodation totals approximately 1,924 sq ft, arranged entirely at ground floor, and includes kitchen and WC facilities. While the offices are somewhat dated, they offer clear potential for redecoration and upgrading to a modern standard.
