“So the rent is considered to be at the moment relatively modest. We think there is going to be some good organic growth and upside to the rental in the years to come.”
Mr Darcy said he expected a sale to set a yield around 6 to 7 per cent through the sale.
“It’s very much a rare offering because of the magnitude and scale of the warehouse,” Mr Darcy said.
“Warehouses of this size and scale, as investment grade, items don’t come to the fore very often within our region.

“It is underpinned by a long lease. The tenant has been there for well over 10 years.
“So it’s a long-term lease and it’s a high grade and high quality amenity. It’s excellent in nature in terms of a warehouse amenity.
“It’s got terrific internal high clearance, about 9.6m to the apex internally, supported by an internal office area and associated amenities including substantial on-site car parking.”
The warehouse has 7909sq m of floorspace, including the two-level internal office space.
Built in the 1990s for the Austin Group, Basford Brands now uses the facility as a warehouse depot.
