| 27.06.06 BUSINESS HOMES SITE GETS OFF TO A FLYING START Construction teams* are on site this week, hard at work turning plans for the new Business Homes office scheme into a reality. The development is just minutes away from Glasgow International Airport.Specialist small business office space developer, Business Homes Ltd, in a joint venture with CALA Properties, have teamed up to develop ‘Glasgow Airport Business Park’, located at one of the region’s most significant property hot spots. A rarity for Glasgow, the business park provides offices that are available both for sale and to let. When complete, the development will provide five buildings ranging between 3,057-5,189 ft2 (932 - 1582m2) all of which will be two-storey and self contained. They will benefit from having ample car parking facilities as well as 24hr CCTV security and tailor-made telecommunications and connectivity to suit. Simon Houlston, Chairman at Business Homes Ltd said, “It’s great to see that work is well under way at this site. “Being so close to the airport, underlying demand for businesses at this site is extremely high. Testament to this is that out of the five units available, we only have one building remaining. The other four have either been sold or are under offer.” Brian Robinson from property agent, Ryden said: “We are delighted to be marketing this development. The location for office occupiers is ideal given the transport infrastructure and prominence of the site. Initial levels of interest have been so good we would expect to pre-sell all available buildings prior to practical completion." As well as services available at the adjacent airport’s terminal buildings, the Park benefits from having Ramada and Travel Lodge Hotels on site, offering catering services and business amenities. Paisley Town Centre is also just a short drive or bus journey away. There are also excellent road links, with easy access to the M8 (via junctions 28 and 29) and a train service runs from Paisley Town Centre to Glasgow City Centre every five minutes. Audrey Dobson, Director, from real estate consultancy, DTZ says: “We are delighted to be associated with Business Homes CALA Ltd and this prestigious development. It is such a pleasure to be involved with the continued growth and prosperity of the area which is highlighted by schemes of this quality."
