Chief executive Phil Redding said the disposal reflected the company's “desire to focus our portfolio on more modern and less management-intensive assets, as well as the continuing, strong investor demand for multi-let warehouse assets in London”.
He also said proceeds would help fund development of new warehouses in the company’s core markets.
The estate has a vacancy rate of around 1% and an average lease length of 5.4 years.
