Scannell Properties and Royal London Asset Management Property have secured planning consent for a 500,000 sq ft industrial and logistics scheme in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
The £135m GDV TN2 Gateway development will comprise nine flexible units which can be configured to provide occupiers with warehouses ranging from 23,000 sq ft to 175,000 sq ft.
Scannell and Royal London are targeting BREEAM Outstanding and an EPC A+ rating for the units at the development, which is located next to Kingstanding Business Park, close to Tunbridge Wells town centre.
Simon Borthwick, UK development director at Scannell Properties, said: “TN2 Gateway will be the only business park in the area capable of providing a range of buildings of ‘mid-box’ scale, a size that has proved increasingly popular for the sector in the last few years. Its prime location and ease of transport connections, alongside its strong energy saving credentials, means we are already seeing interest from a range of local and national businesses keen to take space in an historically undersupplied area.”
McLaren has been appointed as main contractor and JLL and Glenny are joint letting agents at the scheme. Lichfields advised on planning. The first buildings are due to be ready for occupation in Q1 2026.
