URBAN REGENERATIONSheffield is witnessing a huge volume of inward investment into its city centre. Several development projects are underway within the city, driven primarily by government funding. It is expected that approximately £1.3 billion will be invested into the local economy over the next 30 years. There is currently a total of 278,000 sq ft under construction,
of which almost 60% is due to complete in 2019.
One of the largest schemes in this redevelopment is the Heart of the City project, a £470m regeneration of 1.5 million sq ft in the Sheffield City Centre. The development provides a new and vibrant, mixed use district, transforming the area into an exciting place to both live and work.
PLANNINGSheffield has benefitted of late from significant regeneration, in particular, the conversion of secondary office accommodation to alternative and higher value uses, including residential.
In June 2014, Notification of Prior Approval (Planning Ref. 14/1546/OPRN) of the Second and Third floors of City Point was successfully made to facilitate conversion to
residential use to provide 30 apartments. The consent was not implemented, however, the potential exists to implement this in the future, and potentially extent the approval to all floors if required, subject to additional consents.
Units P1GF and P1GF Wing, occupied by Sinoarm Limited (t/a Anytime Fitness) benefit from D2 Use Class for gymnasium use (Planning Ref. 14/4302/FUL & 16/02151/CHU).

OFFICE INVESTMENT MARKETTotal transactional volume in 2018 to date is £133.18m, representing the highest level of office investment in Sheffield for over 10 years and 74% above the 5 year average. Market volume is expected to continue to increase throughout the remainder of the year with several ongoing transactions including Hartshead Square (£41m) and Pennine Centre (£13m).
Prime office yields in Sheffield have remained at 6.00% over the previous 12 months. In comparison to other major northern regional cities, Sheffield continues to offer a significant discount, albeit competitive tension and limited investment supply offers the prospect of further yield compression.

OCCUPATIONAL MARKETRecorded office take-up in Sheffield totalled 400,000 sq ft in 2017, significantly ahead of the 10 year average (250,000 sq ft). 68% of take-up occurred in the city centre comprising predominantly Grade A accommodation.
With limited new developments entering the market, Grade A supply in Sheffield is at all-time low (see chart below). Supply has been further reduced through the removal of over 1m sq ft of secondary and tertiary office accommodation for residential and student conversion. This has applied further pressure on all grades of office supply in the City which struggles to cope with the diverse active requirements in the local market.
2017 saw prime rents reach a five year high of £24.50 psf, reflecting a 27% increase prior to the Global Financial Crisis. The growth of Grade A rents and the removal of supply for residential/student conversation has had resulted in further growth in the Grade B office market with good secondary accommodation achieving in region of £15.00 psf. With a restricted pipeline of new developments and no new schemes currently under construction, further growth is anticipated in the short term.
Completed in 2017, 3 St Paul’s Place and Acero Works (Digital Campus) have been the only speculative new build schemes to enter the Sheffield office market since 2010. These developments, in conjunction with the refurbishment of Steel City House, are a clear reaction to the supply demand dynamics and the heavy inward investment into the City itself.
