SMIDESVÄGEN 2 – LARGE AND FLEXIBLE INDUSTRIAL AND WAREHOUSE PROPERTY IN ASKERSUND

The opportunity is now offered to acquire Askersund Närlunda 1:240, an extensive and flexible industrial and commercial property at the address Smidesvägen 2 in Askersund's eastern industrial area.

The property comprises approximately 7,030 sqm of floor space and is situated on a very generous plot of approximately 24,124 sqm. The combination of large contiguous warehouse and operational areas, offices, staff facilities and extensive outdoor storage areas creates a property with significant flexibility for both property investors and companies in need of premises for their own operations.

The property is strategically located at Askersund's eastern entrance, approximately 1.5 kilometres northeast of central Askersund, in an established area characterised mainly by industrial and commercial properties. The proximity to National Road 50 provides very good road connections to, among others, Örebro, Hallsberg, Motala and Linköping.

THE ENTIRE PROPERTY WILL BE VACATED IN AUTUMN 2026

One of the property's most interesting features ahead of the sale is that the entire property will be vacated in autumn 2026 and thus handed over fully available to the new owner.

This creates an unusually flexible acquisition situation.

For an owner-occupier, this means the opportunity to acquire a larger established industrial and warehouse property and to utilise all approximately 7,030 sqm without having to take existing lease arrangements into account. A company facing expansion, consolidation or a new establishment can thus gather warehousing, production, administration and staff functions within the same property.

For a property investor, the vacation instead offers the opportunity to design the property's future lease structure from scratch. The premises can be let to a larger tenant or, depending on upcoming adaptations and operational needs, potentially divided between several tenants.

The fact that the entire property becomes available at the same time means the next owner gains great freedom of action. Instead of acquiring a property where use is governed for a long time by existing contracts, the buyer can decide for themselves how the property should be positioned, adapted and developed.

The upcoming vacation should therefore primarily be seen as a strategic opportunity for own establishment or active letting and value-creating management.

APPROXIMATELY 7,030 SQM WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT PREMISES TYPES

The property offers a total of approximately 7,030 sqm and currently consists of several different types of operational space.

The premises comprise approximately:

3,860 sqm warehouse

1,880 sqm warehouse/office

1,030 sqm heated warehouse

260 sqm office

The design provides good flexibility and makes the property suitable for a large number of business types. The building's ceiling height and interior construction also create opportunities to adapt the layout of the premises to the needs of the next user.

The property may, for example, be suitable for warehousing and logistics, industry and manufacturing, contracting, wholesale, e-commerce, assembly, service, distribution or other space-intensive operations.

The ability to combine warehousing, operational space, offices and staff facilities within the same property is a significant strength for companies wishing to gather their functions in a single facility.

VERY LARGE PLOT – APPROXIMATELY 24,124 SQM

The property includes a substantial plot area of approximately 24,124 sqm, providing excellent conditions for operations requiring large external areas.

The land is partly asphalted and offers extensive opportunities for storage, parking, material handling as well as loading and unloading.

For companies in warehousing, transport, contracting, industry and logistics, the combination of large building areas and extensive own land is particularly attractive. The operation can utilise both the building and outdoor areas within the same property, providing efficient internal logistics and good flexibility for future changes.

With just over 24,000 sqm of land in relation to approximately 7,000 sqm of premises, there is also a significant amount of open space around the building.

FUNCTIONAL INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL BUILDING

The building was constructed in 1979 and is partly built on two levels. The construction includes, among other things, a concrete slab on grade, cast concrete foundations, a load-bearing frame with steel columns and a steel roof structure. The facades are made of sheet metal and the outer roof is covered with roofing felt.

The property has three roof-height sliding doors, creating good conditions for goods reception, goods flows and operations with regular transports.

Heating is provided via oil heating, and the office section has airborne heating. The office and staff areas are equipped with FTX ventilation. The property is connected to municipal water and sewage as well as fibre. A fire alarm system is installed in the office section.

The staff facilities include, among other things, a staff kitchen as well as WC and shower facilities, creating good conditions for operations with a larger workforce.

The building is assessed to be in normal condition both externally and internally, and no more extensive immediate measures beyond customary ongoing and periodic maintenance are indicated in the available documentation.

PROPERTY LEGAL CONDITIONS AND PLANNING STATUS

The property constitutes Askersund Närlunda 1:240 and comprises a total of approximately 24,124 sqm of land, corresponding to approximately 2.41 hectares, all of which is land area. The property was formed through subdivision in 2010.

The property is covered by the current town plan for the Östra Närlunda industrial area, adopted in 1977. The plan remains in force.

The property extract further shows that no contractual rights, registered rights, shares in joint property management associations or shares in joint facilities have been registered for the property. This provides a relatively clear and easily comprehensible property legal starting point ahead of an acquisition.

ASSESSMENT AND PROPERTY DATA

The property is assessed as an industrial unit, industrial hotel, type code 420. The assessed value for 2025 amounts to SEK 12,274,000, of which SEK 8,200,000 relates to warehouse, SEK 697,000 to office and SEK 3,377,000 to land.

The assessment records approximately 6,598 sqm of warehouse space and 428 sqm of office space, with a construction year and value year of 1979. For both the warehouse and office sections, the remaining economic lifespan is stated as more than ten years.

There are four registered data mortgage deeds totalling SEK 9,300,000.

AN INTERESTING ACQUISITION FOR THE OWNER-OCCUPIER

For a company in need of larger premises, Närlunda 1:240 is a particularly interesting opportunity.

The fact that the entire property becomes vacant in the autumn means a buyer can gain access to approximately 7,030 sqm of premises and approximately 24,124 sqm of own land in a single contiguous acquisition.

It can be an attractive alternative to new construction. Buying land, designing, obtaining the necessary permits and then constructing several thousand square metres of industrial or warehouse building is normally both capital- and time-consuming. Here, instead, there is an existing facility where a new owner can focus on the operational adaptations relevant to their own operations.

For a growing business, there is also the opportunity to acquire more space than today's immediate needs and thereby create room for future expansion within the property itself.

A CLEAR LETTING AND VALUE-ADDITION CASE

There is also a clear development case for the active property investor.

The total floor area and the variation between cold storage, heated warehouse, warehouse/office and pure office space mean the property can be positioned towards several different categories of tenants.

Based on the different character of the premises, market rents have previously been assessed within a broad range. A fully let scenario based on previously assessed market rents corresponds to a total rental value of approximately SEK 2.74 million per year before taking into account any vacancies and other future management conditions.

The acquirer thus has the opportunity to influence the property's future economics through active letting, tenant adaptations and a well-considered tenant mix.

One possible strategy is to establish a larger main tenant occupying the majority or the entire property. Another is to create several separate letting units and thereby spread the rental risk across several businesses.

It is precisely this flexibility that makes the property interesting. The next owner acquires not only existing buildings and land – they acquire the opportunity to decide the property's future direction themselves.

STRATEGIC LOCATION AT NATIONAL ROAD 50

The property's location in Askersund's eastern industrial area provides good accessibility both locally and regionally.

National Road 50 is an important north-south transport route, connecting Askersund with the Örebro region in the north and Motala and onwards to Östergötland in the south.

The location thus provides good conditions for companies whose operations depend on transports, distribution or regular deliveries within a larger geographical market.

Hallsberg, with one of Sweden's most important railway and logistics locations, is also within the region, while Örebro offers access to a significant labour market, E20/E18 and Örebro Airport.

ASKERSUND – ESTABLISHED INDUSTRIAL AND ENTREPRENEURIAL CLIMATE

The Municipality of Askersund has a diversified business community where, among others, manufacturing industry, mining, trade, contracting and small businesses hold a strong position.

The municipality has nearly 800 registered companies, and among the larger employers are the Municipality of Askersund and Zinkgruvan Mining.

The market for industrial and commercial properties is at the same time characterised by a relatively limited supply, creating interesting conditions when a property of this size becomes fully available.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY – OVER 7,000 SQM VACATED FOR A NEW OWNER

Närlunda 1:240 offers a combination that is difficult to find in the local market.

Approximately 7,030 sqm of premises. Approximately 24,124 sqm of land. An established industrial area. Good transport links. Large outdoor storage areas. And above all – the entire property will be vacated and fully available to a new owner in autumn 2026.

For the owner-occupier, this means the opportunity to establish or expand their operations in an existing larger facility.

For the property investor, it instead means the opportunity to acquire a property where the next owner can create the lease structure themselves, and where successful letting can provide significant value-creation potential.

The property's size, the combination of different premises types and the extensive plot area mean the possibilities for use are many.

Askersund Närlunda 1:240 is therefore a property for the buyer seeking more than a traditional management property – here is the opportunity to shape the next chapter of one of Askersund's larger industrial and commercial properties.
