Revamped Edinburgh office welcomes new tenant

KNIGHT Property Group has welcomed IT and digital edge infrastructure provider Pulsant to 4-5 Lochside Avenue, its £20 million sustainable office building in Edinburgh Park.

Pulsant has taken 10,065 sq ft on the first floor on a ten-year deal. The company has moved from South Gyle, with Lochside Avenue now being home to around 80 people.

This is the second deal secured by Knight at the site, following Lumacron Technology moving in to the redeveloped office building in September.

Rather than demolish the pavilion-style building, Knight invested in redeveloping the three-storey 4-5 Lochside Avenue. The building is all-electric, with an EPC ‘B+’ rating.

April Clark, chief people officer of Pulsant, said, “This move marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our Scottish team. As a company, we were really keen to create a more collaborative and flexible workspace to better support our hybrid working approach, and 4-5 Lochside Avenue is the ideal environment for our people to come together and connect and to enable our ambitious business development and growth strategy.”

Howard Crawshaw, MD of Knight Property Group, added, “Pulsant’s move to 4-5 Lochside Avenue has been welcomed with tremendous enthusiasm among all parties involved. Their alignment with our commitment to fostering a more sustainable future is highly valued. We take immense pride in the accomplishments at 4-5 Lochside Avenue, and we are currently engaged in positive discussions regarding the remaining space within the building.”

JLL and CBRE are letting agents for Knight Property Group, whilst Lambert Smith Hampton advised Pulsant.
