Plans to revamp offices inside former church building in Leeds city centre

Over £1million will be spent to transform the interior of a former Victorian Church of England building in Leeds city centre to offer the “classiest offices in the city.”

Albion Court was bought by Glenbrook Investments in September last year and now the company has said the offices will be refurbished and upgraded.

The stunning building located on the corner of Albion Place and Lands Lane is home to Pizza Express, Byron Burger and Card Factory on the ground floor and they will remain as they are.

However, the office reception area, basement, all communal areas and vacant offices will be completely transformed. They will be fitted with “materials and the feature lighting in keeping with a high-end boutique hotel.”

Commenting on the refurbishment, Glenbrook Investment’s Director Scott Griffiths said: “Our contractors started on site this week and we are excited to see all the hard work in planning and designing the changes to the interior now being realised. The retail tenants on the ground floor, Pizza Express, Byron Burger and Card Factory will remain as they are, but the office reception area, basement, all communal areas and vacant offices are to be completely refurbished and upgraded.

"We wanted to reveal the features of the building and create a boutique style that is sympathetic to the architecture and history. I am pleased to say our talented interior designers have created something very special.”

Clem McDowell, Office Agency Director at Carter Towler added: “We are thrilled to have been appointed by Glenbrook to market these fantastic Grade A+ offices. The interior designs are exceptional – the colours and textures, the quality of the materials and the feature lighting is more in keeping with a high-end boutique hotel, but it’s absolutely what this property deserves.

“Albion Court has everything a discerning business could want, it’s a unique part-Grade II listed property with beautiful Gothic revival architecture, in a prestigious heart of the city location, with a plethora of amenities on the doorstep, great transport connections and the highest quality on-trend interiors.

“From the tip of its elegant spire to the events and exercise space in the basement, Albion Court will be one of the classiest office offerings in the city.”

Two office suites, scheduled for completion this autumn, are available ranging from 4,000 to 8,300 sq ft. Carter Towler and Lambert Smith Hampton are joint agents marketing Albion Court.
