Exciting new development at Weston Business Quarter is under construction

Andrew Ridler, Partner, and Sadie Cole, Agency Negotiator at Alder King, join Nick Dowdesdell, Developer at Rockhaven, and Philip Holford, Partner, Max Francis, Apprentice Surveyor, and Gary Mead, Senior Commercial Manager at Myddelton & Major, to celebrate the development of Rockhaven Business Centre at Weston Business Quarter.

Rockhaven Business Centre has launched within the heart of the Weston Business Quarter, delivering 32 new business/warehouse units designed to support enterprise, innovation and local employment.

Positioned at the heart of the established Weston Business Quarter, and just two miles from Junction 21 of the M5, Rockhaven Business Centre combines connectivity, specification and flexibility in a location already proven to attract national and local businesses. Nearby occupiers include Aldi, Lidl, Screwfix, Travis Perkins, Bristol Ambulance Service and Better Kitchens, underlining the area’s strength as a key employment destination.

The scheme offers units ranging from 1,125 sq ft to 2,000 sq ft, available for sale or to let, providing options for start-ups, growing businesses, trade counter operators and owner-occupiers. Planning consent allows for class E(g) uses including light industrial, office and R&D uses, as well as B8 storage and distribution.

Designed with occupier performance in mind, each unit is built around a steel portal frame with a minimum 5.1-metre eaves height, insulated Kingspan roof and wall cladding, and 3-metre wide sectional loading doors. Internally, accommodation includes power-floated concrete floors, first-floor mezzanine storage space, high-bay LED lighting, and BT fibre-to-the-premises connectivity. Allocated on-site parking is provided across the development.

Sustainability is embedded within the scheme, which is targeting BREEAM ‘Good’, with selected units benefiting from roof-mounted photovoltaic panels. Energy Performance Certificates will be available on practical completion of the development. Rockhaven Business Centre is also set to benefit from the neighbouring Haywood Village residential development, which will deliver approximately 1,650 new homes, creating a growing local catchment for labour, services and trade.

Guide prices start from £255,000 for sale, with rents from £18,750 per annum, subject to contract and VAT.

Rockhaven Business Centre is jointly marketed by Myddelton & Major and Alder King.
