Location

The property is located close to Penarth Road Bridge on the Southern edge of the City Centre. Central Quay is located directly opposite, on the site of the former Brains Brewery. This development is master planned to provide 2.5m sq ft of missed use development including hotels, offices, and apartments.

Description

The opportunity comprises two separate buildings and site totalling 0.35 acres. The buildings comprise a 3-storey office plus basement with rear two-story warehouse of c14,085 sq ft.
Adjacent is a separate steel frame warehouse of 9,652 sq ft.
The properties are divided by Trade Street Lane but connected at upper floor levels via a disused conveyor which was a legacy of its former use as a flour mill. The properties are dated and would need investment for continued use.

The specification includes;

  • Prominent Location Close to Penarth Road Bridge
  • Close to Central Station and Cardiff City Centre
  • Separate former Office and Warehouse

Development Potential

The offices and warehouse provide an opportunity for continuation of their existing uses or redevelopment for alternate use. The significant and continued transition of this part of the city would suggest support from the local authority for its redevelopment. Interested parties are advised to make their own their own consultancies team and investigations with Cardiff City Council planning team to satisfy themselves on their desired schemes for the site.

Method of Sale

Due to the development potential for the site it is anticipated we will seek conditional offers subject to establishing the deliverability of the prospective purchasers planned scheme.

Cooke & Arkwright have been providing rating valuation advice to The Welsh Rugby Union Limited (“WRU”) and Millennium Stadium plc for many years. They were recently successful in achieving substantial reductions in the assessments of the Millennium Stadium, covering both the 2005 and 2010 rating list. These negotiated reductions yielded savings of c.£3.5m which, crucially, allows the WRU to re-invest in rugby throughout Wales. They advise the WRU across the group portfolio including the National Centre of Excellence in the Vale of Glamorgan. The valuation issues across the WRU portfolio are complex requiring a high level of understanding of the funding and finances of professional sport in Wales. Cooke & Arkwright’s experience and understanding of these issues and application to the rating valuation have yielded these substantial negotiated reductions. The WRU and the Millennium Stadium entrust our work to organisations with the required levels in experience and expertise in dealing with these complex issues. I am glad to say we have this expertise in Wales. I would have no hesitation in recommending ratepayers making use of this Welsh based expertise.
