Office Space in Oxford Street, M1

CONVENTIONAL SPACE:

This commanding period property on the city’s busy Oxford Street is Grade-II listed and dates back to 1912, when it was originally built as the headquarters of the Calico Printers Association.

St James' is widely regarded as one of the finest period properties in the city, with its handsome stone frontage on Oxford Street and an abundance of classical period features including original marble foors, plastered ceilings and detailed staircases; all without sacrificing the facilities you would expect from a modern office. Each fIoor has air conditioning and raised-access fIooring, achieved through a sympathetic and innovative refurbishment scheme.

The office accommodation at St James' is arranged over nine floors with suites ranging in size from 240 to 70,000 sq ft. The large fIoor plates available in this building are difficult to find in Manchester city centre, particularly in period properties. This provides you with an extensive range of space plan options for your office, resulting in increased spatial efficiency and reduced square footage costs.

The main entrance off Oxford Street also features an impressive marble reception area with a sweeping staircase that leads up to a mezzanine floor with a suite of meeting rooms for hire, many of which have original wood panelling and other period details. It is this original character and quality of the building that has made St James' a popular office location for a wide range of professional firms.

Oxford Street itself offers an array of lunchtime and evening eateries, as well as bars, newsagents, and a selection of supermarkets and coffee shops. The selection of quality retailers on the ground floor of St James' itself includes a florist, coffee shops, restaurants and hairdressers.

From the latest performances at the ‘Palace Theatre’ to Manchester’s international centre for contemporary visual arts at ‘The Cornerhouse’ cinema, your staff will be in a great location to enjoy the best that Manchester city centre has to offer. In addition, there’s a good selection of public transport options in the near vicinity. Oxford Road train station is literally at the end of the street and the rail connections of Deansgate and Piccadilly train stations are both within a short walking distance. St Peter’s Square Metrolink tram stop is just a five minutes walk away, Chorlton Street bus Interchange is just around the corner and Oxford Road forms one of Europe's busiest bus routes.
