WORKSPACE ANNOUNCES DISPOSAL OF STRATFORD OFFICE VILLAGE
Workspace Group PLC ('Workspace') is pleased to announce the
exchange of contracts for the disposal of Stratford Office Village,
E15, for GBP14m.
The site currently consists of 52,000 sq. ft. of self-contained
offices. Workspace obtained planning consent in September 2016 for
a mixed-use redevelopment comprising 101 residential units and
13,000 sq. ft. of new commercial space. The sale price is in line
with the 31 March 2017 valuation.
Jamie Hopkins, Chief Executive Officer of Workspace,
commented:
"Having gained residential planning consent on this site, we
have benefited from the significant uplift in value and are
delighted we have now exchanged contracts to sell the property.
This sale demonstrates the value of our redevelopment pipeline, and
we look forward to deploying the proceeds into our extensive
pipeline of business centre refurbishments."
