Priority Space completes speculative 15,000 sq ft industrial unit at Markham Vale

Developer Priority Space has completed a new speculative 15,000 sq. ft. industrial unit at Markham Vale in Chesterfield, available for sale or lease.

The new industrial unit located just off J29A of the M1 has been developed by Priority Space in partnership with Hunt Group and provides a secure, self-contained yard area and integral offices.

The new speculative industrial unit is suitable for a company looking for new headquarters or a regional hub which provides access to the motorway.

The unit follows the success of phase one at Wilson Business Park at Markham Vale which provided 13 units for small to medium sized businesses and is now fully occupied.

Wilson Business Park sits within the Markham Vale flagship regeneration zone which is a 200-acre business and distribution park.

Priority Space, based in Barnsley, delivers commercial property schemes across the UK. It works closely with local authorities and partners to ensure the spaces are designed to meet the needs of businesses and communities.

Lee Buchanan, co-director at Priority Space, said: “We are pleased to complete the second phase of this development which provides large warehousing space to an area where there is demand. We have seen a great deal of interest in the site and hope to secure an occupant very soon.

“The development of Wilson Business Park has enabled Markham Vale to become one of the biggest commercial parks in the region and we’re proud to have contributed towards that.”

Priority Space is working with letting agents Commercial Property Partners (CPP) to find occupiers for the new development.

Stuart Waite, partner at CPP, said: “We are delighted to see the build complete and excited to commence this next phase of our marketing campaign. Priority Space has delivered a high-quality building in a market which is starved of high-quality supply. We already have a strong enquiry list and have commenced viewings of the property.”

Wilson Business Park is built on the site of the former Markham Colliery and was named in honour of Johnny Wilson, who died while working on the site as a miner in 1987. Markham Vale is an employment-led scheme delivered by Henry Boot in partnership with Derbyshire County Council.

Hunt Group is involved in property development throughout Yorkshire and Lincolnshire and is a parent company to Lincolnshire-based contractor Britcon, responsible for delivering the new units at Markham Vale.
