PROPERTY OVERVIEW

The facility is designed to meet the demands of modern distribution and logistics operations at scale. The cross-docked warehouse provides 61 loading docks and 15 level-access doors, with a minimum eaves height of 15 metres. It is supported by a floor loading capacity of 50kN/m² and benefits from up to 2.4 MVA of heavy power, ensuring capability for a wide range of occupier requirements. The property incorporates multiple efficiency-focused features, highlighted by a 999 kWp rooftop solar array that offsets energy usage and offers occupiers the ability to purchase on-site renewable power. This supports carbon savings and reduced running costs while contributing to the building’s strong environmental performance. Additional measures include smart LED lighting, rainwater harvesting, and mechanical ventilation heat recovery. The building holds a BREEAM Excellent certification and an EPC A+ rating. Externally, XDock 549 benefits from three separate loading and yard areas, with two providing outdoor storage space and depths of 100 metres and 83 metres. The 32.93-acre site also includes 480 car parking spaces, 148 trailer bays, 24 EV charging stations, and 102 cycle spaces.

Additionally, the Silver Jubilee Bridge and the new Mersey Gateway Bridge provide good connections to Runcorn. Another significant locational advantage of XDock 549 is its positioning in Liverpool’s tax and customs Freeport Zone, which offers major cost-saving incentives like rate relief, enhanced capital allowances, duty exemption, and more.

ABOUT HALTON

Halton sits between Liverpool and Warrington, with its two main towns, Widnes and Runcorn, joined by the Silver Jubilee Bridge spanning the River Mersey. Excellent road connections to the M62, M56 and M6 have enabled the area to experience robust demand growth in the industrial and logistics sector in recent years, given consumer behaviour shifts towards e-commerce consumption. Companies with a significant presence in the area include Stobart Group, DHL and Tesco.

Halton is a logistics hub with a high proportion of people working in distribution and manufacturing. As well as a suitable skills base of workers in the manufacturing and transport and storage sectors, incoming tenants to the area may also find its relatively lower wages advantageous: Gross weekly pay for full-time workers in Halton is lower than the UK average.

Focal points of its industrial market, which cater to a wide variety of sectors, include Astmoor, Manor Park and Whitehouse Industrial Estates in Runcorn. An active construction market in recent years, large new developments have been built at Gorsey Lane and Viking Park in Widnes.
