Interest in the landmark 1000 Lakeside office building is remaining high, with owners Highcross currently in negotiations with a range of companies.
The prospective lettings include deals from 2,000 sq ft up to 15,000 sq ft, highlighting the flexibility that the development offers to local companies and the continued health of the regional office market.
Located adjacent to Junction 12, M27, 1000 Lakeside provides high quality, air-conditioned office accommodation, set in extensively landscaped grounds, with almost 1,000 car parking spaces and complimentary shuttle bus service to local bus and train stations.
The building offers very flexible and competitive office space, with the second floor already fitted out ready for occupation and remaining upper floors available to let as a whole or sub-divided into suites.
1000 Lakeside is also emerging as a popular conference and meeting destination, with companies attracted by the impressive new atrium and high quality facilities. As well as a wide selection of fully equipped meeting and board rooms, 1000 Lakeside can provide extensive conference, exhibition and reception facilities.
Nick Turner, Director of Highcross comments: “The attraction of 1000 Lakeside lies in its ability to cater for businesses of all sizes, from those with less than ten employees, right up to major companies seeking headquarters accommodation. All occupiers benefit from a very high standard of office space and facilities, including meeting and conference room facilities for hire, extensive car parking, and an on-site cafe bar and kiosk opening shortly.”
Joint agents for the scheme are Knight Frank and Vail Williams. Martin Tice of Vail Williams comments: “We are continuing to receive a very positive reaction from potential occupiers, with companies always impressed by the environment, the space and the facilities on offer. Increasingly, companies are also interested in the potential networking opportunities offered by having so many different businesses in one location.”
The building’s atrium was the venue for the second Art at Lakeside exhibition last week, featuring a new range of paintings, sculptures and other works by Hampshire artists, many of whom are members of Art Space Portsmouth.
The rolling exhibition has received an enthusiastic reception from occupiers and visitors to 1000 Lakeside, who as well as viewing the paintings and other works, are able to buy and commission works from particular artists.
