The UK local government pension scheme, under the management of and advised by Savills, has bought the recently completed David Lloyd health and fitness club in Rugby for an undisclosed sum.
The property has a site area of approximately five acres and is situated in the new Houlton residential scheme on Houlton Way.
James McLean, fund manager of the SYPA, said: 鈥淭he asset was attractive to SYPA given that it provides long-term indexed income in an area of the market we believe has strong underlying demand.
鈥淭he property provides ESG characteristics which is a major consideration for any new SYPA acquisitions.鈥�
George Trimmer, an associate in Savills investment team, said the asset is let to David Lloyd Leisure for 30 years with indexation.
Trimmer added: 鈥淔ollowing a quick bounce back post-COVID-19, the outlook for the UK鈥檚 fitness sector looks bright, supported by positive market trends and the growing strength of premium operators in regional markets.
