Clearbell has reached practical completion on the transformation of the 30,000 sq ft 85 Gray’s Inn Road office building in London into lab-enabled space.
The building, which is owned by Clearbell Property Partners III LP – a fund managed by Clearbell Capital LLP – sits at the heart of London’s Knowledge Quarter and has been designed to accommodate a range of flexible and bespoke fit out options. The building has an EPC B rating and Clearbell expects it to achieve BREEAM Excellent.
Toby Saul, associate director at Clearbell Capital LLP said: “The life sciences sector is a major asset for UK plc and there remains a widespread shortage of specialist space within London. Quality lab space is essential for our most innovative businesses to scale, conduct world-leading R&D and attract talent. This is why we’re so excited by the incredible potential that our transformation of 85 Gray’s Inn Road represents for prospective occupiers.
“London’s Knowledge Quarter is an exciting place to be and undoubtedly one of the most important hubs for UK life sciences. It’s a prime location for both growing and established firms to find new opportunities for development and collaboration. We’re looking forward to providing a new home to some of those businesses at 85 Gray’s Inn Road.”
Creative Places and Knight Frank are joint letting agents at 85 Gray’s Inn Road.
