SPECULATIVE OFFICE DEVELOPMENT AT TANKERSLEY


Property agents Lambert Smith Hampton have announced the start of a multi-million pound investment in Barnsley.



Three high quality speculative office units are now under construction on the Maple Park development at Wentworth Business Park. The site is located close to M1 J36 Tankersley providing a central location, with Sheffield, Leeds, Rotherham and Doncaster all in a convenient driving distance.

Offices will range from 3,000 to 5,000 sq ft and are available for sale or to let; all have excellent car parking facilities and are set in a landscaped environment. It is expected that phase one will be completed in Spring 2005.
Toby Vernon of Lambert Smith Hampton said, “ Incoming occupiers will benefit from a high specification including; suspended ceilings, fully accessed raised floors, double glazing and high quality carpeting throughout. The location is excellent for companies needing good regional connections and although semi-rural, there are good amenities in the area including hotels, restaurants, bars and a petrol filling station. ”

Jeff Pickering, economic development manager at Barnsley Development Agency welcomed this new development saying, “I am sure these high quality office units will be attractive to occupiers. This is a further vote of confidence for Barnsley as a location for business and we look forward to working with Lambert Smith Hampton to bring new companies to the area”.
