Nuveen Real Estate has let the ground floor of 22 Worple Road, Wimbledon to private medical practice Fortius Group Limited.
The new tenant, which specialises in orthopaedic and musculoskeletal treatments, has taken a 15-year unbroken commitment on the 7,793 sq ft of space at a rent of £48.50 per sq ft.
Located in the heart of Wimbledon and in close proximity to Wimbledon Station, 22 Worple Road has recently undergone a substantial refurbishment designed by renowned architect BuckleyGrayYeoman.
The letting to Fortius Group Limited follows the third floor letting in late 2019 to Envoy Digital at £53.50 per sq ft. The property has further space available to let on the first, second and fourth floors, totalling 24,788 sq ft, with a quoting rent for the remaining accommodation of £55.00 per sq ft.
Bond Woodhouse advised Fortius Group Limited. Nuveen Real Estate was advised by Lewis & Co and Knight Frank.
Will Foster, Partner in Knight Frank’s National Offices team: “22 Worple Road has undergone one of the most innovative recent refurbishments in suburban London. BuckleyGrayYeoman produced a superb scheme, combining the character elements of the original building with a contemporary services solution and stunning finishes throughout. Our clients are delighted to secure Fortius on a long, unbroken term, which reflects their perspective on the building quality and prime pitch location in Wimbledon’s town centre core.
“The reaction from other occupiers and agents has been massively positive. The addition of private and communal terracing to the upper levels provides that critical additional amenity desired by many of today’s discerning London occupiers. We have strong interest in the remaining space at 22 Worple Road and hope to announce more letting activity shortly.”
