Iconic Stockport Pyramid hits the market

Stockport’s iconic Pyramid, is being marketed for sale.

Cushman & Wakefield has been retained by the Co-operative Bank to sell the landmark asset.

The building was formerly home to the Co-operative Bank but following a decision to relocate to other sites, it became surplus to current requirements.
The bank had occupied the building in its entirety since 1995.

The Pyramid comprises 86,000 sq ft of office accommodation arranged over five floors with 426 onsite car parking spaces.

The entire site comprises 4.5 acres and occupies a high-profile location immediately off Junction 1 of the M60 motorway.

Rob Yates, partner and head of office agency at Cushman & Wakefield, said: “We anticipate strong interest in this building – it’s rare that an iconic property such as this is brought to the market on a freehold basis.

“The property will appeal to owner-occupiers and investors alike.

“Stockport, as a business location, is extremely strong. The town has seen significant investment of late and is now recognised as a great location to live, work and play.

“The success of Stockport Exchange and Redrock are testament to this.”

He added: “The Pyramid is ideally located to benefit from the excellent road and rail infrastructure of Stockport. Manchester Airport can be accessed rapidly via the M60 motorway, and the mainline railway station in the town provides direct trains to London with a two-hour travel time.”
