A seven-storey office building in Birmingham city centre has been refurbished and is now available to let, providing more than 78,000 sq ft of workspace.<\/p>\n
King Edward House on New Street has been upgraded to CAT A specification, with floorplates of up to 12,000 sq ft. <\/p>\n
The redevelopment includes new reception and arrival areas, internal courtyards, roof terraces, and amenities such as a gym, studio space, and cycle storage.<\/p>\n
The refurbishment also incorporates energy-efficient features, including LED lighting, smart energy systems, and photovoltaic panels. The building is targeting BREEAM Excellent and WiredScore Gold certifications.<\/p>\n
The property is close to Birmingham New Street, Snow Hill and Moor Street stations, as well as the future HS2 Curzon Street station, making it accessible for a range of potential occupiers.<\/p>\n
Nick Lloyd, partner at Urbana Partners UK said: \u201cWe are delighted to bring King Edward House back to life through our sustainable refurbishment of the building, which has included a complete repositioning of the ground and lower ground floors. These now provide the new reception and arrival area overlooking New Street, as well as high-quality occupier amenities.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith wellbeing as a primary driver, the refurbishment includes a new 7th floor roof terrace for all occupiers as well as seven other lettable outdoor workspaces. With the space offered at a considerable discount to the current top rents being achieved in the city, we look forward to welcoming occupiers into the new King Edward House community very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
Charles Toogood, partner at Newmark said: \u201cKing Edward House presents a compelling opportunity for occupiers seeking modern, energy efficient workspace in the heart of Birmingham city centre. The combination of generous floor plates and a wide range of amenities will appeal to a broad range of businesses, from established corporates to growing firms.<\/p>\n
\u201cGiven the significant investment in the building and its proximity to key transport hubs, we expect the scheme to attract strong interest, particularly from those seeking value relative to other available office space in the city centre.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
