GVA disposes of former Salford Quays Dock office building to investor consortium

GVA has secured the sale of the former Dock Office building in Salford Quays on behalf of LPA Receivers (Roger Phillips and Edward Dry of GVA).

LiveMan Properties, a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) set up solely for the acquisition of this building by a consortium of private investors, has bought the Dock Office for a sum of £2.6m.

Situated on a 1.56 acre site in Salford Quays, the 61,249 sq ft Art Deco-style building is located on Trafford Road close to Media City, the Lowry Outlet Mall and Lowry Theatre, and is well-connected to Manchester city centre via road and Metrolink.

On the sale, Gareth Conroy, Associate for GVA, commented: “Currently providing office accommodation over four floors and basement, the Grade II-listed property boasts redevelopment potential for a variety of uses. The site also benefits from a large parcel of land adjacent to the site which could offer additional parking facilities for the occupier or, alternatively, further development opportunities.”
