“This is a prestigious open-plan office building in the heart of Bournemouth’s prime business district, available to lease on a floor-by-floor basis or, as a national or regional headquarters, as a whole.
“The offices have been redecorated, with new carpets, and offer a high-quality working environment. We anticipate keen interest from companies who are seeking to encourage their employees back to the office as we are experiencing a flight to quality from occupiers.”
A ‘flight to quality’ refers to herd-like behaviour in investment and business strategy, suggesting a current trend back towards physical office space. Other companies occupying the Lansdowne area in Bournemouth include law firms Lester Aldridge and Trethowans, Handelsbanken, Regus, McCarthy & Stone, 4Com, AXA, Lloyds Bank and Hays Recruitment.
Bryony added: “Melbury House has excellent connectivity for occupiers – the mainline railway station and bus station is a short distance, whilst Oxford Road has excellent access on to the A388 which links the A31 Dorset-Hampshire corridor. The seafront is also just a few roads away.”
