Clowes Developments’ Forbes Park Scheme in Long Eaton, where agents Tim Gilbertson of FHP Property Consultants and Richard Sutton of NG Chartered Surveyors have acted on their behalf, in now fully developed.
Formerly the home to a substantial manufacturing complex, the 6.5 acre site was initially fully remediated by contractors for the scheme, Roe Developments, and then a development of small to large industrial and warehouse units, augmented by trade counter facilities and roadside retail, was crafted and implemented, designed by Ben Hall of IMA Architects. Once the agents had quickly found occupiers, leases and freehold sales were documented by Heather Dixon of Geldards.
With many units put under offer before and then during the construction phase, just before the end of 2022 the final unit of over 26,000 sq ft was delivered to the last local occupier to enable their relocation and expansion.
The finished scheme sees over 78,000 sq ft built and developed on the park.
This is not the end of similar size development for Clowes in the region as the developers, together with their agency, architectural and legal team, are now rolling forward and starting to progress the marketing and development of Stud Brook Business Park at Castle Donington, a few miles drive away.
Stud Brook will see the development of 23 units totalling 180,000 sq ft, all to be delivered before the end of 2023.
Already interest is strong in this scheme with a number of pre-lets in place.
