Leeds-based international insurance broker W Denis has received planning consent to remodel 8 St Paul’s Street in Leeds City Centre by extending its total floor space by approximately 30% and adding a roof terrace.
The 20,000 sq ft, 6 storey property was purchased by W Denis earlier this year in a deal negotiated by our office agency team.
Commenting on the planning approval Richard Fraser said: “We are absolutely delighted; this is excellent news for W Denis. They have exciting and extensive plans to redevelop the property and create a flagship head office facility for their growing business.”
Simon Thew, W Denis Managing Director, added: “Our development of 8 St Paul’s Street means we are now ready to create the kind of head office facility that will fully support our staff and our future growth.”
Carter Towler managed the sale of W Denis’ previous office building Brigade House on Kirkstall Road to The Birmingham Property Group. The residential development property company has plans to demolish the existing building to make way for the construction of up to 198 apartments.
