Acting on behalf of a North-East based private investor, Cushman & Wakefield has advised on the purchase of the new Co-operative store on Knaresborough road in Harrogate.
The store, which will open to the public shortly, extends to 4,201 sq ft on a site of 0.41 acres which was formerly home to a Morrisons Local.
The deal was completed at a purchase price of £950,000 reflecting a yield of 5.18%.
Gagan Jagpal of Cushman & Wakefield’s Investment team in Newcastle acted for the purchaser and said:
The location and secure long-term income make this a highly desirable investment, which stands out against many of the other convenience food opportunities. Cushman & Wakefield’s market reach enabled us to source this opportunity off-market with a 48-hour legal process securing the purchase in a fiercely competitive market.
Christopher Dee acted for the vendor in the transaction.
