NEW SCHEME LIGHTS UP COMMERCIAL OFFERING IN WIRRAL

Cutting edge light industrial accommodation, The Lightbox, is now complete with units available, offering a new concept in commercial space for Wirral businesses.

Smith and Sons has been appointed to let the development, already securing a lease one of the units, which are suitable for a variety of uses including laboratory, research and development space.

Sean Seery, Partner at Smith and Sons said: “This is fairly unique commercial development for Wirral. It has been designed in such a way to offer flexible floor space that can be adapted to meet the demands of each business.

“Interest in the development has been strong from the outset and we’re pleased to have secured a lease with our first tenant, Aluminium Solutions NW, who nowoccupy unit four.”

The six units are individually 3,400 sq ft (316 sq m) with self-contained entrances but can be combined to create two units of 10,200 sq ft (632 sq m). Quirky design features include transparent roof and cladding panels which means that no internal lighting will be required during the day, allowing daylight to shine through, creating huge savings for tenants. During the evening if lights are switched on, the scheme lights up creating a tremendous visual effect.

Sean added: “Design and eco features ensure that this scheme stand out on one of Wirral's busiest central thoroughfares. We anticipate strong demand from businesses both within Wirral and those looking to relocate to the area.”

Developer Capital and Centric has led the scheme which has been supported by Regional Grant Funding with £900,000 of gap funding.
