Acquired in 2023 through Kennedy Wilson’s logistics platform as a value-add investment opportunity, Highams Park is a strategically located, 37,000 square foot urban logistics warehouse in North-East London that was vacant upon possession.
Highams Park Story
The acquisition of Highams Park industrial estate offered an attractive repositioning opportunity for a property in a well-established core London market that benefits from access to transportation links and strong rental growth. The 37,000 square feet of warehouse space was vacant upon acquisition, offering the opportunity for a value-add business plan centered on a full back-to-frame refurbishment, including a new roof, new flooring and cladding, as well as updated mechanical and electrical services. Upon completion of the improvements, the property achieved an EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) B Rating.
After acquisition, Kennedy Wilson's asset management team secured a 10-year lease with a new, full-building tenant at a rental rate above business plans.
