Hythe Marine Park up for sale
A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire the 12.1 acre (4.9 hectare) freehold waterfront industrial estate at Hythe Marine Park just outside Southampton.
The site also has 33.4 acres (16 ha) of seabed currently leased from the Crown Estate and there is detailed planning consent for a further 40,000 sq ft (3,716 sq m) industrial building in addition to the existing 224,410 sq ft (20,848 sq m).
The site, a former US military base, has been transformed in recent years into one of the region's most important marine business parks, securing the site's long term employment use as a specialist marine industrial estate and small office/business centre.
Located to the south of Hythe town centre on the western shore of Southampton Water, Hythe Marine Park has excellent transport links and Southampton city centre is only 10 miles to the north.
There is direct access to Southampton Water via a communal slipway. A particular feature of the site is a unique slipway hoist and traverse rail system that will allow some of the largest commercial and leisure vessels to be removed from the water for repair and service. The facility has the capacity to slip vessels of up to 750 tonnes and 55m long.
Further details can be obtained from Jon Diaper or Nick Tutton by contacting 023 8020 6344/6313 or e-mailing jon.diaper@cbre.com or nick.tutton@cbre.com
Expressions of interest are due in by 4th April 2014.
