Business Information

EMF is pleased to present Oakside Light Industrial, a prime freehold opportunity located in the Norfolk town of Long Stratton. This site offers an ideal investment for those seeking to acquire a well-established industrial estate in a strategic location, which offers easy access to the city of Norwich and either the A11, or A12 routes to London.

THE BUSINESS

Oakside Light Industrial Estate encompasses a collection of well-constructed and maintained industrial units, each equipped with essential facilities to support diverse business operations. The estate is known for its ease of access on the main A140 road between Norwich and Ipswich, making it a sought-after location for various enterprises.

The site currently produces a gross income of circa £90,000 per annum; however, when fully let at market rent and with the additional unit available to be constructed, this should be expected to rise to be in the region of £100,000 per annum.

There would appear to be good scope to further develop the site should a new owner so wish, and we understand that additional land to the front of the site, as well as a larger field directly behind the site, may also be available to acquire by separate negotiation.
