Property consultancy relocates away from city centre
National property consultancy Eddisons, which is headquartered in Leeds, has relocated its Bradford offices to the east wing of Frank Marshall Estates’ Grade II-listed Newhall building.
It has taken on 1,400 sq ft in the building, which is close to the M606 and M62 motorways.
The move from the business’s Bradford city centre site to the restored 17th century former manor house at the Newhall is a strategic relocation.
Eddisons says it enables its seven-strong Bradford team to better service its client base, which is predominantly made up of businesses in the industrial property market. The consultancy recently sold its city-centre office building to a residential developer.
Matt Jennings, associate director based in Eddisons’ Bradford office, said: “This is a great move for us. We now have an inspiring and productive work environment, that enables us to embrace modern ways of working and will provide space for the team to grow.
“As well as being a fantastic, historic Bradford building, which Frank Marshall Estates has transformed into exceptional office space, our new offices provide superb access to the motorway network, as well as to the city centre, enabling us to be extremely responsive to our clients across the region.
“Despite economic struggles, the industrial market has remained resilient in Bradford, with strong demand for a range of property sizes and an appetite for industrial development sites and we are now in an even better location to service that market, as well as the office and investment markets.”
Frank Marshall Estates, a commercial development and investment company, is also based at the Newhall site.
Director Edward Marshall said: “Eddisons are a historic Yorkshire company like us and we have now worked with them for more than 50 years.
“We’re really pleased to be sharing the Newhall with them. The building’s restoration has been a flagship project for us and we’ve created fantastic state of the art offices in a great location.”
