Location The property is situated in the heart of Sheffield City Centre just off the main retail pitch on Fargate and High Street. The building sits immediately behind Santander and Sainsbury’s Local and completes the block running down York Street and returning along Hartshead. As such, the property sits between the city’s principle retail pitch and the main central office location in the Cathedral Quarter, with a leisure/bar focus immediately to the east on Hartshead Square.
Description The building was purpose built for Sheffield Newspapers to provide a printing press/ production and distribution facility on ground and basement levels and editorial and administrative functions on three upper floors. A substantial refurbishment of areas of the building was undertaken approximately 10 years ago that created an enhanced office environment on second and third floors and a customer reception on the ground floor, entered from York Street. The first floor and the former press hall on ground and basements levels have been disused for an extended period and are in shell form. The former dispatch bays opening to Hartshead are used for goods receipt and vehicle parking. Accommodation The property comprises the following approximate floor areas: Basement (GIA) Ground floor (GIA. including mezzine) First floor (NIA) Second floor (NIA) Third Floor (NIA) Total Total site Area
