Le mie ricette per la real estate communitySEGRO plc (“SEGRO”) has acquired Electra Park, a 13 acre urban warehouse estate in Canning Town, London from Schroders for £133 million.
The estate is in a prime location, close to Canary Wharf and London City Airport as well as being bordered by the A12 and A13 main roads, connecting it directly to central London. It is also within walking distance of three Zone 2/3 London Underground stations allowing easy access for workers on the estate.
Electra Park provides 21,200 sq m of lettable space across 10 units of which nine are let, with the final unit currently under offer. The WAULT on the let space is 4.3 years to break and 6.4 years to expiry. The estate generates a topped-up passing rent of £3.4 million, reflecting a low average in-place rent of approximately £14 per square foot with an estimated ERV of £21 per square foot. Reflecting these low current rental levels and the potential of this unusually central location, the topped-up net initial yield upon acquisition is 2.3 per cent (rising to 2.6 per cent once the vacant unit, currently under discussion, is let) and the equivalent yield is 3.3 per cent.
