Completion of the infrastructure for 1,300 new homes and a local centre at Stonehouse near Stroud has opened up six acres of new, serviced employment land close to Junction 13 of the M5.
Stroudwater Thirteen is the first phase of a new business park being brought forward by developer Robert Hitchins Ltd as part of a major mixed-use scheme on land jointly owned with Redrow.
The site in Oldends Lane benefits from outline planning consent for industrial and warehousing, B1, B2 and B8 uses and has the potential to provide up to 70,000 sq ft of new business space creating hundreds of new jobs.
It has become available due to the recently-completed infrastructure for the new housing and forms an extension to Stroudwater Business Park where major occupiers include Schlumberger, Renishaw, Dairy Crest, Dentsply and Delphi.
Michael Plimmer, Senior Development Manager at Robert Hitchins, said Stroudwater Thirteen offers a great opportunity for new commercial development on a freehold or leasehold basis.
“Robert Hitchins Ltd has a good track record of delivering new office and industrial development locally, particularly at Stonehouse Business Park where we developed a variety of units for major occupiers including Sartorius. We are now really excited about working with Redrow on this brand new scheme.
“The site is brilliantly situated near Stonehouse, Stroudwater Business Park and the M5 and we’re very optimistic that there will be strong demand in an area with great transport links and the potential for hundreds of jobs.”
