The deal reflects a net initial yield of 3.49% and is broadly in line with the company's March 2023 valuation.
UKCM has owned the property since 2009 and completed a refurbishment of the asset in 2019 when it let the unit to a global e-commerce company until 2029. It will primarily use the proceeds to enhance earnings by paying down a substantial amount of its £93m floating rate Rolling Credit Facility, currently costing 6.3% per annum.
