Hines Global REIT and Moorfield Group (Moorfield) have stated
their intentions for the future of Brindleyplace with the release
of their first office space opportunity to the occupier market.
Following the £190m acquisition of eight buildings at
Brindleyplace in Birmingham from The Brindleyplace Limited
Partnership in July 2010, the companies are marketing 4,351 sqft of
self-contained office space within Nine Brindleyplace.
The first rental opportunity in Nine Brindleyplace since its
completion in July 1999, Hines Global REIT and Moorfield have
undertaken a high quality refurbishment of the second floor suite
which provides the opportunity for organisations to take a smaller
individual office suite and reap the benefits of the Brindleyplace
location.
Igor Mathias of Hines commented: "One of the best mixed-use
estates in the UK, Brindleyplace has already proved to be a very
strong asset for Hines and Moorfield due to the impressive and
stable occupier list that we have acquired here. The investment
which we have made into bringing Nine Brindleyplace up to 2011
standards, is our first opportunity to physically demonstrate to
both existing and potential occupiers our committed asset
management strategy and ambitions for Brindleyplace's future. We
believe strongly in forging mutually beneficial tenant / landlord
relationships for the long term and look forward to welcoming a new
company to Nine Brindleyplace in the near future."
Nine Brindleyplace is managed by Argent which provides the
highest level of quality service and value to occupiers. The
available suite is situated on the second floor of the property
overlooking Oozells Square and offers self-contained space with
excellent levels of natural light. Fully refurbished, the open
floorplate provides a flexible, efficient working environment
designed for today's modern business needs. The space is fully DDA
compliant and comes complete with five basement parking spaces.
Joint agents for Nine Brindleyplace Charles Toogood of GVA and
Craig Satchwell of Colliers International added:
"This is a rare opportunity for a smaller office occupier to
become part of the established Brindleyplace business community.
Hines Global REIT and Moorfield have made a clear statement of
intent towards repositioning Brindleyplace to match the demands of
future office occupiers through this significant refurbishment. The
first office vacancy at Nine Brindleyplace for 12 years, this
presents a truly unique opportunity for a business seeking small
open plan, contemporary office accommodation set within the
well-established Brindleyplace estate."
Current occupiers of Nine Brindleyplace include BRMB, Beachcroft
LLP, Odgers Ray & Berndtson, Unity Trust Bank and Italian
restaurant, Piccolinos. Designed by Associated Architects, the
mixed use building overlooks Oozells Square and combines 53,000
sqft of office space with 15,000 sqft of restaurant space, arranged
