It was a brave move in late 2018 for residential property developer Rivendale Homes to start construction of 5 new office buildings at Nursling, Southampton without any advance sales. Construction took place over the winter and by the time all building works were finished in April 2019, on budget and on time, the joint selling agents Keygrove Chartered Surveyors and Primmer Olds BAS had successfully sold 4 of the 5 offices with a sale agreed on the last remaining office.
Lauren Udall, Surveyor at Keygrove, says “Old Farm Court, is well located on Nursling Street with excellent access to Junction 3 of the M27. The offices all have air conditioning, superfast broadband and car parking. They are ideal for small businesses looking for their own freehold offices.”
Jason Wilkinson, Managing Director of Rivendale Homes says “We are delighted. This is the first new office development to be built around Southampton for many years, with commercial being a new area of development for Rivendale so we took a bit of a risk in this unknown territory but the agents Keygrove and Primmer Olds were confident we would find buyers quickly.”
Keygrove have recently let a number of other small offices in locations including Hythe Marina Village, Chandlers Ford Industrial Estate and Deacons Marina, Bursledon, showing that the market for small business is buoyant and demand is continuous.”
