In an appropriate transaction for the home of the Sun God, Naylors Chartered Surveyors have recently secured a deal with UK Firewatch, one of the Region’s leading specialists in the provision of automatic fire sprinkler systems, who are taking the largest single unit at Apollo Court, Monkton South Business Park. The deal marks the half way point in the marketing of the scheme with five of the ten units having now been taken.

Comprising a detached building of 5,000 sq ft across two floors, the accommodation was ideally suited to UK Firewatch providing high quality offices at first floor and storage workshop space beneath with the capacity to fit the space for lab style working, or further meeting rooms in the future.

“We had been looking to relocate into new premises for some time and the adaptable nature  of the space within the unit was something that appealed to us, as it satisfies our immediate needs but also gives us the capacity to grow” said Derek Duggan, Managing Director of UK Firewatch. “We also needed a highly accessible location, good parking with a flexible deal and Apollo ticked all the boxes for us” he added.

Bill Naylor of Naylors Chartered Surveyors is pleased to have secured this important letting. “Whilst the market has been difficult throughout the time we have been marketing these units, the take-up has nevertheless been encouraging and demonstrates both the quality of the space on offer and also the flexibility of the financial terms” he said. “We have built a momentum here for further success in the next few months notwithstanding the current business climate and one of the attractions is that we can offer an option to buy in the future which means that an occupier can move in as a tenant in the normal way, but know that when the funds are available they will be able to realise a dream for ownership”

The five remaining units range from 2,500 sq ft to 8,000 sq ft.
