CBRE Global Investors has announced plans to carry out a full-scale redevelopment of Seven Dials Warehouse in Covent Garden, WC2.
The historic building, at 42-56 Earlham Street, will offer 40,000 sq ft of prime office space. It was once a Victorian brewery and a stationer’s warehouse. More recently, is has been the headquarters of Facebook, Expedia and King.com.
It comprises six floors and has a 3,000 sq ft roof terrace with panoramic views across London.
The building was Grade II listed in 2002 as it is a rare example of an industrial warehouse in central London and therefore considered to be of national importance.
Laura Wilson Brown, director at CBRE Global Investors, said: “This is a unique opportunity for the London office market. The building is steeped in history and the refurbishment will be bringing modern and old together, offering fantastic office space. The character and prominent location have been the inspiration behind the scheme’s design.
“We look forward to welcoming a tenant to what we believe to be an exceptional offer in one of the most diverse of London submarkets.”
Bluebook and Colliers have been appointed to let the workspace.
