A STATE-of-the art building in a trendy industrial park has had a ten-year lease signed.

The ground floor of Majesty House, in Skyline 120 Business Park in Braintree, has been let out to the energy distributor UK Power Networks Ltd.

Set in a one-acre site, the building features office space of around 20,000 sq ft, as well as warehouses.

Built in 2008 for the Majesty House Group, which specialises in the entertainment industry, the building boasts high ceilings and air-conditioned offices as well as movement-sensitive lighting.

It also has a double height entrance area.

Property consultants Joscelyne Chase dealt with the letting on behalf of the group.

Joscelyne Chase commercial director Paul Bird said: "It's top-of-the-range office space for the area, which is not easy to find in Braintree, it's more like something you would find in the West End.

"Having said that, it's very competitively priced."

At present the business park contains more than 400,000 sq ft of warehouse and office space, which is soon to expand to over 500,000 sq ft, making it one of the most significant employment parks in the region.

Mr Bird said: "It's good for Braintree because it's generating jobs."

Majesty House is near the entrance of the business park, which is close to the A120.

Located near Stansted Airport, the property also benefits from having convenient access to many national and international suppliers.

Mr Bird, who is working with various other businesses interested in buildings in the park, added: "This transaction is further evidence that, even in difficult market conditions, Skyline 120 Business Park continues to attract top-quality companies."
