11,022 Sq Ft / Industrial / Investment

For Sale

To Let

Available - Last updated: 18 September 2025

Offered to the market For Sale or To Let is this active scrap metal yard with double height semi structure and container storage and office space.

Existing Use - Our client has informed us that the land has no restrictions for the scrap / waste business as it has the benefit of grandfather rights.

The site handles both ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metal and has an End of Life Depollution license issued by the Environmental Agency.

In addition a scrap metal license is held and a certificate of destruction system is in place.

Early morning and late-night work schedules have always been in place including weekends and bank holidays, while remaining mindful of the neighbours.

The Opportunity - The property offers a versatile opportunity for investors, owner-occupiers, and developer / speculators.

Within a long-established regeneration zone, the area has already seen over a decade of investment and improvement, with further major upgrades under way.

The site’s existing industrial use adds valuable flexibility in a market where Inner London industrial opportunities are increasingly sought after, while demand for housing and mixed-use schemes continues to grow.

With strong prospects for rental yields, capital growth, and redevelopment potential, this is a rare chance to secure a property with multiple exit strategies and long-term value.
