Roundhouse to start spec office scheme

ROUNDHOUSE Properties is preparing to start work on an £8m office scheme in Preston.

The developer, which also handled South Preston Office Village, expects to start on site next month at the 60,000 sq ft scheme at South Rings, near Bamber Bridge.

The site will incorporate 23 offices ranging from 750 sq ft to 6,000 sq ft.

Roundhouse’s director Harold Lefton said: “We’ve had great success with our South Preston Office Village during one of the worst recessions in history and it is our intention to mirror that success at South Rings.

“South Rings is well known in the property industry as a good location as it sits directly on the M6-M65 interchange and will provide the perfect base for any business wishing to make the most of the excellent motorway infrastructure. We are now in the process of planning the build stages and hope to be on site very soon.”

Roundhouse has appointed Bailey Deakin & Hamiltons and King Sturge as agents for the development.
