12 SOUTH MNCHESTER MRKET s a consequence of the increasing demand and dwindling supply, rents on Cheadle Royal are now anticipated to grow. Despite the challenging economic climate, prime rents in South Manchester have remained stable over recent years, with headline rents of to per sq ft. During this time, Cheadle Royal has firmly established itself at per sq ft. However, 2015 began encouragingly for South Manchester with a number of larger transactions taking place and pushing prime rents to per sq. ft. This has been exemplified by the recent letting of the 11,717 sq ft ground floor suite of Ocean House, Towers to Mason & Vaughan at a rent of per sq ft, and the 8,088 sq ft letting to Cisco at Spectrum House, Towers, also at a rent of per sq ft. In addition, Syngenta have recently exchanged contracts on the 32,230 sq ft Crescent House, Towers, again at rent of per sq ft. There are also a number of other high profile occupier requirements currently in the market, likely to commit to vacant South Manchester office space within the next 12 months. This will put further upward pressure on rents.
