Rushbond PLC, has acquired The Exchange in Harrogate, a 10-storey office building above the town’s railway station.  The Rushbond team were advised by Tom Jackson, Oliver Brooke, Andrew Hurst, Lois Smith and Jessica Townend.

The acquisition is part of Rushbond’s strategic plan to grow its portfolio of commercial assets in Yorkshire.

‘It was a pleasure to have worked with the Rushbond team on this exciting, fast-paced acquisition. It’s a fantastic Grade A asset in a prominent location and another exciting addition to their portfolio’ Tom Jackson, partner, real estate

The Exchange is currently home to a range of businesses from software development companies to law firms and architecture practices, and also features two retail units on the ground floor.

This is the second recent major investment in the town for Rushbond, as they commence work on transforming Harrogate’s Herald Buildings into a new retail and apartment scheme.

“The Exchange building represents an incredible asset management opportunity for us. There is no better address for businesses wanting to locate in central Harrogate, with stunning views across this beautiful spa town and countryside beyond. The transport links are second to none and there are substantial onsite car and cycle parking provisions. We believe the planned programme of works will reinforce The Exchange’s attraction to a range of future occupiers who see the benefits of locating here in one of the most attractive towns to work and live in the UK.” Richard Baker,  Rushbond
