Orchard Street Investment Management has agreed five new lettings at its 25-acre Gildersome Spur industrial estate in Leeds after transforming the green credentials of the buildings.
Dufton Plumbing & Heating Supplies has become the most recent tenant moving to the park after taking 9,905 sq ft of space on a 10-year lease.
In addition, over the past 12 months, leasing deals were signed with B&K Flooring, AHT Holdings, Panel UK and Kingfisher UPVC Windows and Doors, across a combined 67,000 sq ft of space.
The lettings follow refurbishments of five warehouses on the park, focused on the improvement of the EPC ratings of each facility. Upgrades include installation of air source heat pumps, LED lighting, electric vehicle charging points and the rooftop solar panels.
Alex Hardwick, asset manager at Orchard Street, said: “Gildersome Spur has proven itself to be a high-performing long-term hold in Orchard Street’s industrial portfolio, having generated robust demand from leading occupiers looking for prime warehouse space in a strategic location to serve the north of England. These latest lettings have resulted in the estate being fully let.”
Gildersome Spur comprises 500,000 sq ft of industrial and warehouse space across 27 buildings. It offers access to the M62 and M621 motorways and is located seven miles from Leeds city centre.
Carter Towler and GV&Co acted as joint letting agents.
