The Minton Business Centre in Far Cotton, Northampton has been one of the town’s success stories during what has been a period of reduced transaction activity in the commercial sector. The Airflow Streamline site, purchased by the Minton Group, has provided an almost unique opportunity for good value freehold industrial space in close proximity to Northampton Town Centre, St James Retail Park and Junction 15a of the M1.
Joint agents Lambert Smith Hampton and Budworth Hardcastle have successfully sold 79% of the scheme, with recent transactions including 48,000 sq.ft. sold to Bearwood Engineering and 16,000 sq.ft. sold to Keystone Roofing. Other occupiers on the scheme include InTown Automotive, Kis Coaches and Stagecoach.
The site’s location and building configuration have also provided unique opportunities for Trade Counter occupiers and Leisure uses such as The Pinnacle Challenge Climbing Centre, where the high eaves of Unit 1 has enabled them to erect a 12.5m climbing wall, which is one of the highest in the region. Ashley Bourne of The Minton Group comments, “we are absolutely delighted with the progress made to date, and expect the three remaining units to attract further purchasers shortly.” In this respect, the Agency Team are also delighted to report that they are in discussions with a number of interested parties, but welcome new enquires on the remaining 46,700 sq ft.
