Rounding off a busy summer for one Cambridge agent

Looking over some of the smaller local commercial lettings secured over the summer by Eddisons in Cambridge, the agency remain confident about the local market ahead of the autumn in, describing it as ‘steady’.

During the summer, new occupiers have been secured for premises in Ely and Soham in East Cambridgeshire, Haslingfield in South Cambridgeshire and Cambridge City - among other locations covered by Eddisons’ local office.

Many of the operators are already in situ and have begun trading ahead of autumn.

Included in the latest agency round-up is a new café on Forehill, Ely - one of the main retail thoroughfares of the cathedral city. In the nearby town of Soham, a carpentry & joinery firm has secured its new premises in a unit at Ashley Industrial Estate.

On the southern outskirts of Cambridge, a company specialising in baby products is a new occupier at Penn Farm Studios in the village of Haslingfield.

In central Cambridge, a local branch of a national eggless cake franchise has opened for business at 174 Mill Road. And, most recently, the letting of a former barber shop on nearby Thoday Street, will see a new use as a studio salon for a permanent make-up artist & practitioner.

Joe Berry (pictured), Eddisons Cambridge, believes the deals highlighted in the summer round-up show the diversity of the commercial offer in the area.

He said, “These lettings demonstrate the ongoing confidence shown by small business operators in Cambridge and its surrounding market towns and villages.

“The setting up of new ventures and the growth of existing ones - whatever the size of the enterprise or its property requirements - are key to the ongoing commercial prosperity of the area.

“It has been a busy summer of lettings for our agency team and we’re confident that our new instructions will set a steady pace in the autumn.”
