Plans Approved For Office Block At EMDC In Castle Donington

Construction News Image
Plans for a two-storey office block at EMDC in Castle Donington have been given the go-ahead.

The plans were submitted by Clowes Developments.

The build will allow for either entire or split occupancy across the two floors at 5,000sq ft each on either a leasehold or freehold basis.

The standalone plot of 0.6acres sits directly opposite Redrow Homes head office with a design which will mirror the external aesthetics and complement each other harmoniously.

With many businesses re-evaluating their future requirements for office space, this build could allow a business to down size to accommodate fewer staff working from the office environment on a day to day basis whilst still providing a first class facility for meetings, staff welfare, flexible working arrangements and convenience. With ample on-site parking and excellent links to the M1 and A50, the detached building presents a wealth of opportunities for businesses.

The unit also presents an impressive option for investors who are seeking an opportunity to be part of an already hugely successful business park. With the 2m sq. ft M&S distribution centre, Redrow homes Regional head office, Moran logistics and many more making EMDC their home, this building would make a quality investment for the smaller Pension Fund or SIPP.

Paul Shanley, Director at Clowes Developments commented: "With excellent links to the UK's main arterial motorway (M1), close proximity to the East Midlands Airport for commercial passenger and logistical flights, and a stone’s throw away from the newly developed East Midlands Parkway railway station, EMDC is an excellent spot for businesses looking to relocate. This combined with our experience of building quality developments across the UK makes this particular build ideal for occupiers looking for a prestigious office and investors looking for a small pension fund opportunity."
