The Grange Farm Unit comprises a detached, single and two storey food processing facility of principally 1970s concrete frame construction, with more recent additions. The unit occupies a self-contained site of approximately 2.16 acres.
Internally the property has been configured for food processing, and is sub-divided with ‘white wall’ insulated hygienic panelling, providing chiller/refrigeration areas, food preparation areas and storage accommodation.
Purpose-built two storey office accommodation is situated adjacent to the main factory area, providing a mixture of cellular and open-plan accommodation, along with staff welfare facilities.
Externally, there is principal staff car parking fronting Heanor Road, with two points of access. There is a third vehicular access point off Taylor Lane, leading to a yard and dock-level loading area.
There is a solar panel roof installation to the eastern aspect of the property. We understand the property benefits from electricity at a reduced cost subject to a power purchase agreement.
The property has benefitted from a robust maintenance programme and presents in good condition.
