National commercial property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton
(LSH) has acquired a major state-of-the art office building on
Solihull's Blythe Valley business park on behalf of construction
and development services group Kier.
The 23,000 sq ft office building with on-site car parking has
been acquired for Kier's commercial property arm, Kier Property,
for occupation by Kier Moss and the group's social housing
division, Kier Partnership Homes. The group is relocating its
Midlands headquarters from Birmingham, bringing more than 150 jobs
onto the 257-acre business park. The deal was led by the Birmingham
office of LSH.
The two subsidiaries will occupy the strikingly-designed
two-storey Tungsten office building which boasts some of the
highest specification office space in the region. Employees moving
in are relocating from offices in Maypole, Birmingham.
Alastair McChesney, Director in LSH's Birmingham-based Office
Agency team said, "Blythe Valley offers excellent Grade A office
space which will provide superb accommodation close to the M42 for
the Kier teams."
Blythe Valley business park will eventually provide more than
two million sq ft of high quality office space, set in a
countryside park. The facilities on the park include a gym and
nursery as well as on-site park management and 24-hour security.
The business park is jointly owned by Liberty Property Trust and
Doughty Hanson Real Estate.
