Sale of prestigious commercial property in Leeds’ York Place completed

The Leeds office of Chartered Surveyors Eddisons has completed the purchase of 6 to 8 York Place in Leeds, on behalf of Frank Marshall Estates, for an undisclosed sum.

The part-let property in Leeds’ commercial district extends to 18,000 sq ft and is now due to undergo a major refurbishment programme in a bid to attract additional tenants.

On completion it will offer space ranging from 340 sq ft to approximately 7,500 sq ft.

The firm already has commercial assets in Bradford, Halifax and Huddersfield.

Jimmy Marshall of Frank Marshall Estates said: “We have been reviewing the Leeds market as part of our longer term strategic plan to increase our footprint in the Yorkshire area.

“York Place fits perfectly with our current portfolio, being in an area occupied by property related businesses and many other top companies.

“We are appreciative of the help Eddisons provided and the price they negotiated, which will allow us to undertake a refurbishment programme aimed at delivering what tenants in Leeds expect, but at very competitive prices.”

John Padgett, director of agency at Eddisons said: ’We are pleased to have completed the purchase on behalf of our client and look forward to working with them on similar acquisitions in the future.“

The vendors were represented by Steadman Brierley.
