Construction is now well underway this month (September) at Heron Court, a new development of twelve industrial/warehouse units for sale or to let at Eagle Business Park, Yaxley now that planning permission has been granted.
Confirmation of the launch of this latest development of commercial units, which comes forward in the second phase of Eagle Business Park’s expansion, comes from Barker Storey Matthews (now part of Eddisons) who remains the sole agent under instruction.
Six units at Heron Court have been pre-sold, leaving six units available for sale or to let on terms by negotiation, in sizes from 1,275 sq ft to 5,300 sq ft, with the agent advising that units can be combined to suit occupiers’ requirements.
All the units at Heron Court are of steel portal frame construction, with front panel cladding and glazing to the frontage. With an eaves height of six metres, all units have LED lighting, cable ducting for fibre optic broadband installation and electronically operated, sectional overhead doors to access the warehouse areas.
Eagle Business Park, which fronts on to Broadway in Yaxley, was established in 2010 and the first phase was soon successfully developed to occupy its original 25.7 acre site. The second phase of the park’s development, on a further 18.3 acres to the rear of the original site, began two years ago (2017) and Heron Court is the most recent addition to the development, joining companion developments Harrier Way and Peregrine Court where only four and three units remain available, respectively.
Now a busy and high profile business location, Eagle Business Park is three miles from Junction 16 of the A1(M) at Norman Cross and, with access to Peterborough’s Parkway system, the city centre is two miles to the north east.
Both phases of Eagle Business Park see a good mix of trade counter, light industrial, showroom operators who occupy their units in either freehold or leasehold tenure.
Commenting on the launch of Heron Court, Richard Jones, Director, Barker Storey Matthews Peterborough said, “Our client, developer Barnack Estates Ltd, led by Managing Director, Rob Facer, has always been determined that high standards of build quality and landscaping are maintained at Eagle Business Park, and Heron Court is no exception.
“As well as the quality and range of the new units at Heron Court, the location of the development will benefit operators for whom recruitment, road distribution or incoming deliveries are key.
“With six units pre-sold, parties are advised to register interest sooner rather than later this autumn now that construction is well underway and the units are scheduled for completion by the end of January (2020).”
Rob Facer, Managing Director, Barnack Estates Ltd, added, “Eagle Business Park has played a significant part in unlocking the commercial opportunities on the southern outskirts of Peterborough. The success of its first phase has set the tone for phase two in meeting the demand from occupiers looking for new-build quality, affordability and accessibility.”
