LARGEST FLOORPLATE ON THE MARKET AT SALFORD QUAYS

| Helen Hallsworth

Centenary House, Eccles 3

Commercial Property Office Agents Canning O’Neill have been appointed as joint agents to market the entire top floor of office building Centenary House.

The development is located on the MediaCity UK border and offers 22,313 sq ft of commercial space on its highest storey alone.  It’s already home to Visage Group, which occupies over 55,000 sq ft in the building and there’s a further 10,000 sq ft under offer.

Mark Canning, director at Canning O’Neill says: “Offering 22,313 sq ft on a single floor, this space is unrivalled in the area. Whilst it can be split the strong preference is to find a single occupier for the whole.”

Centenary House, Eccles 4“The scheme has great connectivity by car, metro or bus and is a fantastic space and for an occupier with between 200-250 staff wanting to maximise internal communication within the workspace, a single floor is ideal.”

“Although office take up in the Salford Quays area for the first two quarters of 2016 is well down on the comparable period last year (80,000 sq ft against 384,000 sq ft), last year’s figures did include the pre-let to Bupa and major lettings to UK Border Agency and Talk Talk at Soapworks”

“There are also some major deals about to be announced which will show much improved figures for the second half of 2016 and, as a result, a continuing decline in the amount of quality Grade A stock available – so watch this space!”

The first floor of the building has been fully refurbished and is available for immediate occupation, with rent quoted at £16.50 per sq ft.
