Bridge Properties has secured two new lettings at its Element office scheme in Birchwood, near Warrington.
WM Morrison Supermarkets has taken 16,290 sq ft across the entire second floor and mezzanine of the building on a five-year lease and engineering and construction company VolkerFitzpatrick has taken 2,375 sq ft on a five-year lease on part of the first floor of the building.
The property benefits from a large business lounge and café with outdoor terrace as well as an on-site gym. Following completion of these transactions there is one suite of 4,250 sq ft available to lease, which can be split.
Paul McCann, director of Bridge Properties, said: “We are delighted that Morrisons and VolkerFitzpatrick have chosen Element for their workspace. Their decisions reflect the quality of our environment and the value we place on creating spaces where businesses can thrive.”
Daniel Barnes, director in the Manchester office agency team at Savills, which is joint agent at Element alongside OBI, added: “This is an excellent result for our clients and is testament to the quality of office space available at Element. It continues to attract top occupiers like Morrisons, and shows the strength of the office market in the North West.”
Simon Roddam, who heads up OBI’s out-of-town office in Warrington, said: “These lettings reflect a broader tranche of deals currently under offer across the Warrington office market. As a result, the forthcoming quarter is shaping up to deliver a materially stronger level of office take up, underpinned by demand for well-located, high quality accommodation like Element in Birchwood.”
Morrisons was advised by Colliers.
