Properties Suitable for Gyms for Sale or to Let

Bernard Gordon & Co have worked in this market for over 30 years and fully understand the complexities and needs of properties suitable for gyms. Gymnasiums previously fell within use class D2 and were arguably the largest industry in this planning sector. Since the planning changes in September 2020, gyms now fall within use class E, which means they now compete for properties with other sectors. While this may seem like a negative, it opens the industry up to a whole host of properties that formerly were not available to the D2 market. We have helped start-up businesses grow into chains, franchises expand, and larger companies grow even bigger.

We have a range of gymnasium properties available to rent and buy. Please look at the listings below and use the filters to sort properties for sale or to let.

Buying & Renting Property for Gymnasiums

Bernard Gordon & Co have extensive experience in dealing with properties that are suitable for gyms. These types of properties typically range from 3,000 sq. ft – 25,000 sq. ft and can be hidden within an industrial park or can be found in prime, central high street locations.

While no market is a recession or pandemic-proof one, we have lived through various tough times over the years and find the gymnasium market remains strong and in demand. The fitness industry in the UK is vast and reportedly contributes billions of pounds in revenue per year and is growing. It is a market that thrives on repeated business, and it is unlikely that demand will drop anytime soon.

Our vast experience in the market means we know the main requirements to ensure a commercial property is suitable for a gym. We understand the demand for floor loading constraints, ceiling heights, power supply, and sound insulation. We also know a standard commercial gym isn’t the only type of gym within the market. For example, bodybuilding gyms may have a different setup to a CrossFit gym. We know most gyms want a high footfall of passers-by to encourage trade, yet some may want to keep the client base more limited.
