Freehold Retail Investment Opportunity
CRAWLEYCrawley is an important retailing and business destination in West Sussex,
located 50km (31 miles) south of Central London, 34km (21 miles) north of
Brighton and 43.5km (27 miles) south-west of Guildford.
The town has first class transportation links adjoining the M23 (J10-11),
which in turn links with the M25 (J7) and Central London to the north and
Brighton to the south. There is also an excellent rail service from Crawley
to London Victoria (with a fastest journey time of 45 minutes). The Gatwick
Express operates nearby from Gatwick Airport (3 miles north of the town
centre) to London Victoria with departures every 15 minutes and a non-stop
journey time of 30 minutes.
DEMOGRAPHICS & ECONOMYA popular expanding commuter town, Crawley has a resident population
of circa 102,700 (2011 estimate) and an extensive primary catchment
population of 481,000,which ranks above the Sub Regional Centre average.
The town is projected to see further above average population growth in the
next few years.
The Crawley area has a particularly affluent demographic profile with a
significantly above average proportion of adults of working age categorised
within the most affluent AB social grouping. In contrast, the least affluent D
and E social groups are under-represented.
The local economy is strong. Gatwick Airport is a major employer with
around 25,000 employed directly or indirectly through airport related services.
Other major employers locally include Virgin Atlantic, Nestlé, TUI Travel, CAA, Servisair, Thales, APV UK Ltd and KPMG.
Crawley
THEPROPERTY
CRAWLEY
RETAILING IN CRAWLEYCrawley has a town centre retail floor space of circa 960,000 sq ft, which
is disproportionally low considering the town’s extensive catchment and
affluence. The estimated shopping population of Crawley is 213,000 with per
capita retail spending levels above the PROMIS average.
The prime retailing pitch outside of County Mall is regarded as the
pedestrianised Martlets, which links the shopping centre to Queens Square.
National multiples represented on the Martlets include, H&M Hennes, Republic, Carphone Warehouse, Lush, JJB Sports, Schuh,Topman, Sports Direct, HMV, Vodafone, Waterstone’s and Specsavers.
County Mall extends to approximately 480,000 sq ft over two levels and
is anchored by Debenhams, Bhs and Boots. Other retailers include
Superdry, River Island and Miss Selfridge. The main mall entrance is
adjacent to the subject property.
Beneficial to the town’s future growth is the proposed regeneration of the
Northern Quarter. Planning permission has been granted to Land Securities/St
James Investments for Phase 1 centred on the re-development of the ‘former
Sussex House site’ in the High Street, comprising a Morrison’s food store, a
110-bed Travelodge and 4 restaurants.
SITUATIONThe property has a triple aspect with prominent frontages onto both The
Martlets and Haslett Avenue with a small return frontage onto The Broadway.
The main entrance to County Mall is in close proximity as are the town centre’s
principal bus stops and rail station. Retailers located opposite and adjacent
include H&M, Top Man, Carphone Warehouse, Schuh, Republic, Primark, Sports Direct, HMV, O2, Halifax, Shoe Zone, JJB Sports, Lush, Greggs and Deichmann.
DESCRIPTIONThe property built in the 1970’s comprises two substantial blocks; the first
is situated on the western side of The Martlets and runs virtually the entire
length from 2-26, adjoining Deichmann, which fronts onto Queens Square to
the North, and Carphone Warehouse to the south. The second block can be
found at the County Mall end of The Martlets directly opposite the Bus Station
and includes 8-24 Haslett Avenue and 31-35 Broadway. In addition there is
a surface and underground car park (141 spaces) to the rear of the property
with vehicular access from The Broadway. 24-26 The Martlets has effectively
been sold off on a long lease (999 years at a peppercorn).
ACCOMMODATIONThe property provides a total approximate net internal floor area of 8,685m² (93,486 sq ft) as set out in the schedule of tenancies and accommodation.

ASSET MANAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
• The property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial
unbroken retail parade on a 1.8 acre freehold site (not including 24-
26 Martlets) in Crawley town centre which has future re-development
prospects subject to planning which could result in the extension and
improvement of the existing holding.
• The asset provides an investor with flexibility allowing sub-division
and sale of part.
• Consider acquiring adjoining ownerships (25-34 Queens Square –
Deichmann/Shoppers Amusements/Primark and 24-26 The Martlets)
to take full control of this strategic island site for future re-development.
• There is the opportunity to enhance the current rental income with the
letting of the vacant units at 16 and 18 Haslett Avenue and potentially
10/12 The Martlets (Game) as well as improving the weighted
unexpired lease term on the property as some of the tenants have
intimated that they would re-gear leases.
VATThe property has been elected for VAT and any disposal will be by way of a
Transfer of a Going Concern (TOGC).
PROPOSALWe have been instructed to seek offers £14,000,000 for the freehold
