Strategic Location and Specifications

5931 Priestly Drive provides ±52,777 SF of high-quality industrial/R&D space on 2.83 acres within the 560-acre Carlsbad Research Center. Key features include 4,000 amps of 277/480V 3-phase power, a 24’ clear height, four grade-level loading doors, and a 3.5/1,000 RSF parking ratio. The property is conveniently located minutes from I-5, Highway 78, and McClellan–Palomar Airport, as well as nearby retail and executive housing.

Exceptional Owner-User Investment

With its demisable layout, 5931 Priestly offers users the flexibility to occupy the entire space or a portion, generating income by leasing the remaining balance. This presents an exceptional opportunity to own, rather than lease, given the limited supply of comparable buildings; allowing owner-users to benefit from rental income while securing long-term control over occupancy costs and potential equity growth. The building’s adaptability also makes it ideal for growing businesses seeking to secure their long-term real estate needs, as it allows for future expansion.

Value-Add Potential

Recent substantial improvements provide a blank canvas, empowering both users and investors to optimize the space according to their distinct visions. The extensive base building infrastructure, already in place, allows for the efficient pursuit of strategic objectives while minimizing capital outlay.

Compelling Investment Opportunity

The flexible multi-tenant layout and recent capital improvements enable the Property to attract a diverse tenant base across R&D, technology, and light industrial sectors. North County’s industrial market is strong, with leasing up 56% over the previous quarter to 2.7 million SF, just shy of the 2.9 million of pre-covid average. With a 3-5 year construction timeline limiting new supply, the value of existing properties is further underscored. This limited supply of comparable assets enhances its long-term investment potential.

Strong Market Fundamentals

Carlsbad continues to attract diverse tenants and capital, demonstrated by commitments from firms like Vuori and IDEC. Q1 2025 saw a 56% increase in leasing activity over the previous quarter, with 11 leases over 50k SF, reflecting strong space absorption and renewed user confidence. Investor and user demand remains focused on modern, functional assets with infrastructure supporting a wide array of uses.
