Clowes Developments submit a planning application for a further 100,600sq ft unit at Fairham Business Park
IMA Architects have submitted a detailed planning application to Rushcliffe Borough Council for Plot A2, a 100,600sq ft purpose-built facility at Fairham Business Park on behalf of Clowes Developments.
The unit will be neatly located between Plot A4, a 100,000sq ft unit which is currently under construction and the recently completed stand-alone facility for SLS Medical who are now on site and fully operational.
The brand-new purpose-built manufacturing premises will be comprised of a 76,520sq ft single story warehouse with 24,000sq ft office and welfare space over 2 storeys. At the front of the building, there will be 152 car parking spaces with 16 electric vehicle (EV) charging bays. There will also be a large service yard to the rear with 2 dock levellers and 3 level access to meet the needs of the occupier. Clowes will be providing a fully photovoltaic (PV) ready frame. The unit is expected to be ready for occupation by end of 2024.
Ben Hall, Director, IMA Architects commented on the planning application:
“IMA are delighted to submit another planning application to Rushcliffe Borough Council for Fairham Business Park. The level of interest and quality of potential occupiers is very encouraging for the brand-new neighbourhood. Offering excellent tailored facilities for businesses looking to make Fairham Business Park their home is providing further investment, local jobs and bringing economic opportunity to the area. Our latest application will further bolster this trend.”
James Richards, Director at Clowes Developments added:
“Since its inception, we have seen a lot of interest in Fairham Business Park. This is no doubt down to its excellent location, first rate transport links, incredible setting and overall quality and speed of delivery of the development.
In total, over half of Fairham Business Park, totalling 500,000sq ft, is now sold, rented or under offer. In the last few months, we have evolved the site from a construction site to a thriving business park with two occupiers fully operational. The success of Fairham Business Park to date comes down to the hard work and dedication from our agents, construction contractors, professional advisors and our in-house team.”
The commercial development boasts excellent connectivity with easy reach of junction 24 of the M1, East Midlands Airport and adjoining the NET Tram Park & Ride site, with further transport improvements expected. Fairham Business Park offers the perfect location for business offering 50 acres (20 hectares) of employment opportunities, surrounded by the countryside, a neighbourhood centre and 3,000 brand-new homes.
Despite such heavy investments on the manufacturing and industrial use areas of the business park, there remains ‘design and build’ opportunities and specific B1 use including office, retail, leisure and hotel requirements across the site.
