Steps Ahead Nursery Ltd Sold to Existing Operator

Redwoods Dowling Kerr is pleased to announce the successful sale of Steps Ahead Nursery Limited, a substantial vacant children’s day nursery located on Bradley Road in Trowbridge, Wiltshire.

The property comprises a large, single-storey former nursery setting positioned on a one-acre site. Purpose-built and thoughtfully laid out, the setting previously operated with a registered capacity of 104 children, with clear scope to increase occupancy to 120 plus children through optimisation of space and age group allocation.

Internally, the nursery benefits from ten dedicated care and classroom spaces arranged across three wings for babies, toddlers and pre-school children. Facilities include multiple playrooms, sleep rooms, changing areas and a speech and language room with ancillary accommodation including a reception area, offices and a commercial kitchen.

Externally, the property offers valuable features including a secure car park and expansive outdoor areas. The grounds provide a variety of free-flow and activity spaces, including rubberised play areas for younger children and a larger outdoor classroom-style environment for pre-school age groups.

The nursery was sold as a vacant opportunity, allowing the purchaser to restart operations with a clean slate or reposition the setting to suit their operational model. The scale of the property made this a particularly attractive acquisition within the Wiltshire childcare market.

The sale was negotiated by Sarah Ellison, Deputy Manager of Childcare and Education at Redwoods Dowling Kerr, who identified the ideal buyer, an established operator.

Sarah said of the sale, Steps Ahead Nursery presented a rare opportunity in the Wiltshire childcare market. Its size, facilities, and potential made it an ideal setting for an established operator to restart operations. I was delighted to identify the perfect buyer and to guide the sale to a successful conclusion.”
