CCLA Investment Management has unveiled newly refurbished offices at 3 Lochside Avenue in Edinburgh, which is said to focus on sustainability and employee wellbeing.
Located at Edinburgh Park, the redeveloped building has been designed to meet the needs of occupiers seeking ‘premium’ workspace with strong ESG credentials.
Features include a new café lounge, event spaces, a roof terrace, and flexible floorplates designed to support a range of occupier requirements.
The all-electric building has an EPC A rating and incorporates sustainability features such as photovoltaic roof panels, heat pumps, LED lighting with PIR and daylight controls, electric vehicle charging points, and cycle facilities.
To mark the launch, CCLA and appointed letting agent CBRE hosted a preview event for Scottish office agents. As part of the event, coffee roaster Matthew Algie hosted a coffee tasting experience, reflecting the growing importance of hospitality, wellbeing and premium occupier amenities within modern office environments.
Matthew Meaden, deputy head of property at CCLA Investment Management, said, “Sustainability and occupier wellbeing have been central to our vision for 3 Lochside Avenue. We wanted to create a workspace that performs strongly from an environmental perspective while also delivering an exceptional experience for the people working there every day.
“The building combines high-quality, flexible office accommodation with the amenities and sense of community that modern occupiers increasingly expect. Edinburgh Park offers a unique environment where businesses can benefit from excellent connectivity alongside a thriving amenity and wellbeing offering on the doorstep.”
Angela Lowe, senior director and head of Edinburgh at CBRE, added, “3 Lochside Avenue represents exactly the type of workspace occupiers are actively seeking – highly sustainable, amenity-rich and designed to support modern patterns of work. There is a clear shortage of best-in-class Grade A space across Edinburgh, particularly buildings with strong ESG performance already embedded, and we expect the scheme to generate significant occupier interest.”
