Cube Real Estate and BP Pension Fund (Ropemaker Properties Ltd), advised by HSM, have sold an office tower and two retail parades in West Byfleet for £10.5 million to Altitude Real Estate Limited. The freehold property is multi-let to a number of tenants producing an income of £515,805 per annum, representing a net initial yield of 4.64% and a capital value of £165 per sq ft.
The buildings on Old Woking Road and Station Approach sit on a 1.19 acre site and extend to 63,000 sq ft in total. They include 18 retail units, 30,000 sq ft of offices over five floors and parking for 75 cars.
