Worcester’s Bridgwater Road attracts new occupier

Property agents JLL have secured an 8,000 sq ft letting at 1 Bridgwater Road in Worcester to a company involved in risk management and the insurance sector.

The letting follows a £1 million refurbishment designed to create a high-quality, sustainable working environment, with energy efficiency at its core with the installation of an innovative new VRF heat source pump system and LED lighting throughout.

Andrew Duckett from JLL Fund Advisory, who acts on behalf of the building’s owners said:

“We’re pleased to have secured another occupier by investing significantly in the offices to create a point of difference in the marketplace and appeal to companies focussed on wellbeing and attracting and retain talent.”

One further floor of nearly 8000 sq ft remains available to let at 1 Bridgwater Road sitting adjacent to Npower and Aspire Academy.

Andy Riach from the Birmingham offices of property agents JLL added:

“Creating a high-quality working environment is even more key for companies in the current climate, where employees are gradually returning from working and have an added focus on wellbeing.

“The light, airy floorplates, cycle storage and landscaped outdoor areas will particularly resonate given the surge in cycling and increased time people have been taking to connect with the outdoors. It’s futureproofed for business and ready for companies looking to take the next step.”

JLL’s Building Consultancy team carried out the landlord’s refurbishment works.

JLL is joint agent with Harris Lamb.
