A TRADING estate has received a welcomed £200,000 facelift thanks to a major investment.

LCP, an investment and management company, has put together funds for their Sterling Way trading estate.

The Tilehurst estate has been given the cash to undergo major refurbishments and units three and six, including new windows, roller shutter doors, and redecoration throughout.

Unit three also had a new roof and floor has office space refurbished.

Ed Tuckett, asset manager at LCP, said the improvements were undertaken as part of its active management programme.

“LCP prides itself on investing significant time and money on ensuring its property portfolio is maintained to the highest of standards, for the benefit of our clients and to help attract new occupiers to our estates and properties,” he said.

“We’re very pleased with the work that we have done at Norcot and as a result of the works, the newly renovated units are now being marketed.

"We’re already attracting interest from would-be occupiers, which demonstrates the need for good quality units of 10,000 sq ft and under in this particular area.”

The refurbished lots are both available to rent.
