Hargreaves Group, the private family-owned investment and development company with a commercial and residential portfolio across the South East, has announced the letting of Unit 4 York Road, Burgess Hill to Howden Joinery. This strategic letting further advances the transformation of York Road into one of the area’s most dynamic and concentrated trade destinations, complementing the existing offering at Burgess Hill Trade Centre opposite, home to national brands such as Screwfix, Topps Tiles, City Electrical Factors, City Plumbing Supplies and Toolstation.
Unit 4 York Road offers 10,361 sq ft of modern, highly prominent warehouse accommodation, designed to meet the operational needs of leading national occupiers. Howden’s decision to commit to a new 15‑year lease on the unit underscores the long‑term relevance and enduring appeal of York Road as a strategic hub for the expanding Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath catchment.
David Russell Smith, Senior Asset Manager at Hargreaves Group, commented:
“Howden’s arrival strengthens a growing ecosystem of market‑leading operators on York Road and leverages off the demand that exists for resilient, high quality commercial space in Burgess Hill. We are proud to support their expansion and to continue shaping York Road as the prime commercial hub for the town”.
Hargreaves was advised by Stiles Harold Williams and Montagu Evans.
