16 Erskine Square is a traditional, portal framed industrial unit with brick walls and a metal clad roof.
The property lies within a secure, gated yard area, shared with Unit 18, which is currently leased to Scottish Ambulance Service.
The previous refurbishment was only undertaken around four years ago and included a new gas fired heating system and boiler and warehouse lighting.
In addition to the main workshop area, the property includes a small block to the front with a reception, kitchenette and WC. A small internal office created by the previous tenant has been retained.
The workshop has a clear internal height of approximately 12 ft. (3.65 m.), rising to 19½ft. (6 m.) at its apex, and the roller shutter door is 13¾ ft (4.2 m.) high by 12½ ft. (3.85 m.) wide.
Location
Hillington Park is one of Scotland’s largest and most successful business parks with over 2 million sq. ft. of commercial property being home to a wide variety of businesses and organisations.
Junction 26 of the M8 motorway provides direct access to the estate, lying 6 ½ miles west of Glasgow city centre. Via the motorway, Glasgow International Airport (4 miles), Renfrew town centre (4 ¼ miles) and Paisley town centre (6 miles) are all just short drives away. The major shopping and leisure complex of Braehead is also nearby, lying immediately on the north-side of Junction 26.
16 Erskine Square is accessed via Queen Elizabeth Avenue, from the A736, which runs through the middle of the business park, connecting with Junction 26 to the north.
The park also benefits from strong public transport links, with nine bus routes and more than 800 buses running through the park every day, plus two railway stations, the closest of which, Hillington West, lies only five minutes’ walk from 16 Erskine Square.
Accommodation
The property has been measured in accordance with the RICS Code of Measuring Practice (6th Edition) and is calculated to have a gross internal area of approximately 1,917 sq. ft. (178 sq. m.).
