A flagship office building, which would perfectly serve as a company’s headquarters, is available to buy or to let at the Capitol Park development in Leeds.
The building, which was formerly the headquarters of Real Radio, is ideally situated at the entrance to Capitol Park East by Junction 28 of the M62.
The award-winning Yorkshire property development and investment company Sterling Capitol has undertaken a comprehensive refurbishment of 1 Sterling Court, which is one of the most distinctive buildings available in the Leeds out-of-town office market.
Paul Beckett, CEO at Sterling Capitol, explained: “This is a rare opportunity to purchase or to lease a splendid self-contained 9,700 sq ft contemporary building, which has been completely refurbished, in such a prominent location.
“These have been interesting times for the Leeds out-of-town town office market, but both Capital Park East and Capitol Park West remain stellar business parks, perfectly located next to the M62. The recent letting of Trueman House at Capitol Park, together with plans to extend the popular Village Hotel, underline the park’s attraction and potential.
“The Village Hotel, within easy walking distance of 1 Sterling Court, provides all the amenities that a modern workforce needs, with a state-of-the-art gym, swimming pool, fitness studios, restaurant and Starbucks. Meanwhile the popular White Rose Shopping Centre is close by.”
Andrew Weisz, head of property at the Village Hotel, explaining the reasons for the extension, said: "In response to growing customer demand, we're delighted to be adding 48 new bedrooms to our Leeds South hotel. Work is set to be completed over 12 months, with the hotel remaining fully operational throughout the construction period.”
Paul added: “Capitol Park Leeds is one of the brightest success stories in the Yorkshire business parks sector and we are very proud of what we have achieved here, with recent lettings and a host of high-calibre occupiers including Create Fertility and Ideal Boilers.
“1 Sterling Court has been fully refurbished to the highest specification to provide distinctive and contemporary offices. It would make the ideal HQ building for an expanding Yorkshire firm either to buy or to let. Alternatively, 3,000 sq ft floorplates are available to lease.”
Elizabeth Ridler, a partner with global property consultancy Knight Frank in Leeds, who is marketing 1 Sterling Court, added: “1 Sterling Court occupies a position at the front of Capitol Park East, with great signage opportunities, overlooking the A653 road into Leeds and next to the M62.
“It also boasts 48 on-site secure parking places with EV charging points and ticks so many ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) boxes, which are at the core of Sterling Capitol’s real estate strategy.”
The joint marketing agents for 1 Sterling Court are the Leeds offices of JLL and Carter Towler.
