Description
A rare opportunity to take an entire floorplate at one of Colchester's most established office buildings. The First Floor at Wellington House has been comprehensively stripped back and provides a bright, open-plan canvas ready for an incoming occupier to fit out to their own specification.
The Space
The First Floor is offered as a single, contiguous demise, configured open-plan with a clean shell finish. The floorplate is ideally suited to a single occupier seeking a headquarters-style space, but is equally well configured for sub-division into cellular offices, meeting suites, breakout zones or collaborative workspace.
Tenants benefit from:
- Open-plan specification ready for tenant fit-out
- Excellent natural light from windows on all elevations
- Passenger lift access directly to the floor
- Communal W/C facilities on every floor
- Staffed ground-floor reception
- Allocated parking on-site, with overflow available at the adjacent Butt Road public car park
- EPC rating: C (69)
The Building
Wellington House is an eight-storey, landmark office building in central Colchester, set within a parade of professional and commercial occupiers on Butt Road. The building benefits from a staffed reception, passenger lift to all floors (except the seventh), and a wide and varied tenant mix.
The Ground and Third Floors are currently being redeveloped under a partnership with IWG to operate as a serviced workspace centre with on-site café — a meaningful amenity uplift that will benefit all tenants in the building.
Location
The property is prominently located on Butt Road, a short walk from Colchester city centre and well-served by the usual amenities including cafés, restaurants, banks, shops and public houses. Colchester mainline railway station provides regular direct services to London Liverpool Street (approx. 55 minutes), with the A12 trunk road offering excellent vehicular access to the wider region. Stansted Airport is approximately 35 miles distant.
Terms
The First Floor is available on a new lease (length and terms to be agreed) on flexible terms — open to conventional fixed-term leases as well as shorter-term flexible occupational arrangements. Owner-occupiers, established businesses, regional offices and growing SMEs are all welcomed to enquire.
