VanWest Partners announces the completion of a major expansion at its Jacksonville, Florida, self storage facility located at 6664 Firestone Road in the rapidly growing southern Jacksonville submarket. ClearHome Self Storage – Firestone Road was originally acquired in May 2024, marking VanWest’s ninth self storage acquisition in Florida over the past five years.
The facility, originally constructed in 2021, consisted of 39,570 net rentable square feet across a mix of climate-controlled and non-climate-controlled units. The newly delivered expansion on the western half of the property adds more than 28,000 square feet of rentable space and 144 drive-up units, featuring larger average unit sizes designed to meet rising customer demand in the area.
“Our construction management team did a fantastic job delivering the new buildings on time and on budget after breaking ground last fall,” said Jacob Vanderslice, Principal at VanWest Partners. “We designed the expansion with larger average unit sizes, which are in particularly high demand in the market. With attractive introductory pricing and strong leasing momentum already underway, we are excited to offer these new storage options to our Jacksonville customer base.”
The Jacksonville facility is strategically located in one of Florida’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas, where strong population growth, job creation, and above-average household formation continue to fuel self storage demand. The Firestone Road property is positioned to serve both residential and commercial customers seeking new, secure, and conveniently accessible storage solutions.
The expansion underscores VanWest Partners’ broader strategy of scaling its ClearHome Self Storage platform through value-add acquisitions. By targeting properties with room for operational and physical improvements, the firm continues to enhance customer experience while creating long-term value for investors.
