Roundhouse Properties has secured planning consent for a new £15m GDV business park at South Rings in Bamber Bridge in South Preston.
Designed by David Cox Architects, the 67,000 sq ft Momentum Plus scheme will comprise nine commercial blocks on a 3.7-acre site. The blocks will provide 50 units ranging from 750 sq ft to 10,000 sq ft.
Jeremy Lefton, managing director of Roundhouse Properties, said: “Our Momentum schemes have proved to be incredibly popular with SMEs, and with this site, we’re enhancing that model with the addition of larger commercial space alongside our traditional-size units you’ll find on a Momentum business park. It’s fantastic that we can now press ahead with the redevelopment of the site by creating a modern business park, boosting economic growth in the area by creating an attractive location with a mix of units for new and growing businesses.”
Danny Pinkus, partner at Robert Pinkus & Co, which has been appointed as agents for the site, added: “We’re looking forward to bringing this high-quality development to the market on behalf of such a well-respected local developer with an excellent track record of delivering similar schemes locally. In a climate where supply of premium small business units is extremely limited, this scheme represents a rare opportunity for occupiers and investors alike.
“The flexible configuration and high specification of the units make them ideal for a range of modern businesses, and we expect significant demand both from those looking to purchase and those seeking high-grade premises to let. Opportunities like this don’t come around often in this market and we very much look forward to working on this scheme”
