Thruxton Circuit bought by Boundary Real Estate Partners

Boundary Real Estate Partners has acquired Thruxton Motor Racing Circuit in Hampshire on behalf of a private investor.

Owned by a private individual since the 1950s, the site comprises over 440 acres of land.

It includes Thruxton Circuit, 150,000 sq ft of industrial warehouses and hardstanding, 95,000 sq ft of hangars and a CAA licenced aerodrome.

The British Amateur Racing Club (BARC) has been headquartered at Thruxton for more than 50 years, with the circuit hosting motorsport events including British Touring Cars and Formula 3 racing.

Thruxton Circuit is often deemed the fastest in the UK, where drivers can reach speeds of over 190 mph.

Complementing the racetrack, the site boasts a skid pan, a 4x4 centre and a 1,100-metre purpose-built outdoor karting facility capable of reaching speeds of 60mph.

The aerodrome is home to a range of rotary and fixed wing aircraft businesses which make use of the onsite amenities, including aircraft hangars, rescue and firefighting, fuelling and café facilities.

Charlie Walker, founding partner at Boundary, said: “We’re thrilled to have completed this off-market acquisition on behalf of one of our private investors.

“Thruxton is a unique project and a fantastic opportunity to create a lasting legacy for the new owner.”

Simon Bowder of XLB added: “Having completed the business plan objectives for the vendor, we’re delighted to have disposed of the asset to an investor looking to build on Thruxton’s great reputation.”

Allsop and Lintott & Co acted on behalf of the purchaser, while Bidwells advised the vendor.
