  • Cambridge | Exciting Shopping Centre Investment Opportunity
    CAMBRIDGE | EXCITING SHOPPING CENTRE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS • Cambridge is considered one of the most desirable cities in the UK within which to own commercial property investments. • The city’s core strengths: its large, affluent and rapidly expanding catchment, its world renowned university and its huge tourist industry make Cambridge one of the strongest regional economies in the UK. • The city is considered Britain’s pre-eminent research and development centre and has an established reputation as one of the world’s leading high technology business clusters. • Over 17 million tourists visit the city every year, boosting the already affluent and rapidly growing catchment population. • Each of these strengths combine to give Cambridge one of the highest employment rates in the UK and the city continues to deliver exceptional growth across all of the property sectors. • The Grafton Centre is a key retailing location in its own right, conveniently situated on the east side of the city centre. • The Centre is located in an area known as The Kite, a key area designated for further retail development within the local plan. • The Centre comprises nearly 500,000 sq ft of retailing accommodation in 84 units with 1,150 car parking spaces. • Anchored by Debenhams, the centre houses key retailers such as Next, H&M, TopShop and New Look in addition to an 8 screen Vue cinema. • The centre benefits from an existing planning consent for a substantial refurbishment and re-modelling project. A purchaser will have the opportunity to initiate exciting plans to re-invigorate Grafton to once again become the favoured shopping destination for the wealthy local population.
