WUKPG has submitted a proposal to Cheshire West and Chester Council for a 62,000 sq ft complex off Chester Way.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The five-floor Northwich self-storage development would be operated under WUKPG\u2019s Shutter Store brand.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The developer, which is planning to build a \u00a3150m self-storage portfolio by 2030, acquired the one-acre site from Adlington Homes, part of Gladman Developments, in 2021.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At that time, the plot had planning permission for a 50-apartment extra care scheme. However, WUKPG has pivoted to self-storage, planning a \u00a312m facility that would provide 600 storage units, co-working space, and a BOCCA coffee drive-thru unit.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The project also features living walls and EV charging. The developer is targeting BREAAM Excellent accreditation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Subject to planning approval, the developer anticipates the scheme will be operational by Q2 2027.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

C4 Projects is leading on design HK Planning is advising on the application. XO Square is the structural and civil engineer, and Barber & Co is advising on branding.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

WUKPG is also progressing plans for a self-storage project in Lancaster. The developer has submitted plans to deliver 475 drive-up self-storage units on a former Travis Perkins site off New Quay Road in the city.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Both the Northwich and the Lancaster projects will incorporate proptech such as Nok\u00e9 key access systems, as well as ANPR, CCTV, EV charging, solar panels and Stora booking systems.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
