About
The premises comprises a self-contained, gated yard providing approximately 6,781 sq ft of secure open storage land, benefiting from B8 use class and therefore suitable for a wide range of storage and distribution requirements.
The site is enclosed by timber fencing and secured by substantial metal gates, offering a controlled and private compound ideal for occupiers requiring a demarcated outdoor storage or vehicle holding area away from the public highway.
The surface is finished in compacted gravel, providing a durable, low-maintenance base suitable for vehicle movement, container storage, or general external storage use.
The open layout of the yard allows for flexible configuration according to the occupier's operational needs, whether for the parking of commercial vehicles, storage of plant and materials, or general trade use.
The site benefits from good natural light and an unobstructed working area, with sparse surrounding vegetation contributing to an open outlook without compromising the security and enclosure of the compound.
Located in Chelmsford, Essex, the yard offers a practical solution for businesses requiring additional external storage or yard space within a well-connected part of the county.
The site's B8 classification supports a variety of storage and distribution operations, making it a versatile option for occupiers seeking secure land without the overheads associated with built accommodation.
The property is available to let at £800 per calendar month, with a rateable value of £10,500, representing a cost-effective solution for businesses in need of secure, flexible yard space.
Interested parties are advised to make further enquiries to arrange a viewing and to discuss specific operational requirements in relation to access, use, and site configuration.
