For Sale: 250 year lease on investment land opportunity to hand down to your children and children's children

A rare chance has come up to buy a 250 year lease on a small plot of land on an East Midlands business park.

Innes England is looking for interest in the lease for part of Sherwood Park, just off J27 of the M1 in Annesley, Nottingham.

It is asking for offers in excess of £225,000.

The commercial property agent said the current passing rent is £5,151 a year – with future rent reviews linked to inflation.

It said the investment is also government-backed, with the ground rent coming from the Police & Crime Commissioners in the East Midlands.

The sub-tenant has constructed a meter house on the site to accommodate an electricity supply plant room which serves a nearby office building and lab occupied by the East Midlands Police Forces.

Craig Straw, director and head of business space at Innes England, said: “This is an attractive investment which we anticipate will be of particular interest to personal pensions schemes.

“Not only is the guide price very affordable, there is also rare long-term income from Government-backed money.

“The 250-year lease means that not only will the purchaser benefit from it, but so will future generations and it is inflation-proof as the lease incorporates annual RPI linked upward only rent reviews.”

Sherwood Park sits on 200 acres of land next to the A608, 11 miles north of Nottingham city centre and seven miles south of Mansfield.

It is home to headquarter office buildings, leading edge manufacturing facilities, call centres and mixed occupancy offices.

Companies based there include Rolls Royce, Pendragon, Dell, Eddie Stobart, E-on and L’Oreal.
