Sharecast - The 68,000 sq ft property is located on a five-acre site on the Old Kent Road in South East London and is let to B&Q, Pets at Home and Halfords (LON:HFD). The site has planning for 1,100 new residential apartments.

LondonMetric has also materially extended the weighted average unexpired lease term and increased the annual rent by 54% to £2.1m, with 85% of the income subject to contractual rent reviews.

Following the acquisition, LondonMetric has a 69% equity interest in the JV.

Chief executive Andrew Jones said: "This is an exceptional asset in a prime central London location where the demand for higher value alternative uses more than underpins the purchase price.

"The simultaneous regears and rental increases demonstrate our strong retailer relationships and high occupier commitment to retain representation in a location where de-retailing is seeing quality retail space lost to alternative uses on an almost unprecedented basis."

Comment Guidelines

We encourage you to use comments to engage with users, share your perspective and ask questions of authors and each other. However, in order to maintain the high level of discourse we’ve all come to value and expect, please keep the following criteria in mind: 

  • Enrich the conversation
  • Stay focused and on track. Only post material that’s relevant to the topic being discussed.
  • Be respectful. Even negative opinions can be framed positively and diplomatically.
  •  Use standard writing style. Include punctuation and upper and lower cases.
  • NOTE: Spam and/or promotional messages and links within a comment will be removed
  • Avoid profanity, slander or personal attacks directed at an author or another user.
  • Don’t Monopolize the Conversation. We appreciate passion and conviction, but we also believe strongly in giving everyone a chance to air their thoughts. Therefore, in addition to civil interaction, we expect commenters to offer their opinions succinctly and thoughtfully, but not so repeatedly that others are annoyed or offended. If we receive complaints about individuals who take over a thread or forum, we reserve the right to ban them from the site, without recourse.
  • Only English comments will be allowed.

Perpetrators of spam or abuse will be deleted from the site and prohibited from future registration at Investing.com’s discretion.
