GVA focused on disposal of second phase of A&J Mucklow’s Apex Park

The UK’s largest independent commercial property consultant and the Midlands’ leading property advisor, GVA is seeking occupiers for the six acre second phase of A&J Mucklow’s Apex Park site in Worcester.

Following the successful letting of the final office space at Apex 3, the last available unit within the office led 2.5 acre first phase, GVA – jointly appointed with Harris Lamb – will now focus on the disposal of Phase Two, which offers a number of design and build opportunities for potential occupiers.

Phase Two presents a perfect solution for companies looking for modern, purpose-built space suitable for a variety of uses, including distribution, manufacturing, research and development, vehicle dealerships, healthcare, or bespoke offices, subject to receipt of detailed planning consent.

Justin Parker, Managing Director of site owner A&J Mucklow, said: “Apex Park is an exceedingly well connected site in a central location within the UK. We hope that its extremely accessible location and position adjacent to the motorway network will make it an appealing prospect for many potential occupiers, particularly the distribution and manufacturing sectors.

“We have seen significant interest in the first phase of this development and I am extremely hopeful that given the range of occupiers that could be accommodated, a similar level of interest will emerge for Phase Two.”

Located at Junction 6 of the M5, Apex Park offers outstanding connectivity to the UK motorway network and is within easy reach of both Birmingham City Centre and Birmingham Airport.

A Park and Ride service is available from the nearby Sixways site, providing direct services to Worcester City Centre and the nearby Foregate Street and Shrub Hill train stations, offering commuter services to Birmingham and London Paddington.

Andrew Venables, GVA, said: “Having now secured 100 per cent occupancy for Phase One, the time is right for us to turn our full attention to the disposal of Phase Two of this outstanding out-of-town development opportunity. The sheer flexibility of the site makes it a unique proposition within the region and its location further enhances its appeal.

“Building design and configuration across Phase Two can be tailored to suit an occupier’s individual circumstances, with buildings available from circa 20,000 sq ft, all of which will have a target to achieve a minimum design standard of BREEAM ‘Very Good’.”

Situated on the doorstep of the picturesque Malvern Hills, Apex Park is close to a range of local amenities, including a Premier Inn with conference facilities, Beefeater pub, Subway, Busy Bees Nursery and Tesco Express.

Additional nearby facilities include the new David Lloyd leisure club – with gym and spa, crèche, and indoor and outdoor tennis courts and swimming pools – with a Hampton Inn by Hilton Hotel due to open shortly.
