A substantial former university campus in Cheltenham totalling approximately 85,122 sq ft has been put up for sale for £7.25m.
Hardwick No. 1 Ltd has instructed Knight Frank to market the Hardwick Campus, which comprises six main buildings across a 4.69-acre site.
The property offers extensive teaching, office, administration and secure on-site recreational space and amenities, including a café. It also provides 123 en-suite student accommodation bedrooms spread across three residential blocks, with shared kitchen facilities on each floor. The site is available freehold with vacant possession on completion.
Emma Cleugh, head of education and charities at Knight Frank, said: “This represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial turnkey educational facility in one of the UK’s most desirable locations. The campus offers tremendous flexibility for continued educational use or commercial purposes, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.
“Located just a 10-minute walk from the town centre yet set within extensive grounds, the property delivers the accessibility and scale that many owners, operators and investors look for. In terms of planning, the site’s current and historic uses make it well-suited to continue as an educational campus. However, should an occupier not be secured, positive pre-application discussions with Cheltenham Borough Council have explored the potential for residential development as an alternative to its existing educational use.”
