Three mid-tech buildings on Sawston’s Accelerator Park now available

Canmoor and Tristan Capital Partners have launched Phase 2 of South Cambridgeshire’s Accelerator Park to the market.

Joint letting agents DTRE and Bidwells hosted a breakfast event for 40 agents on 22 May to showcase the three, brand new, mid-tech buildings which have now achieved practical completion.

Accelerator Park is located in Sawston, at the heart of the established biotech cluster, approximately 7 miles south of Cambridge city centre. The research establishments at Babraham Campus, Wellcome Genome Campus and Cambridge Biomedical Campus are all close by, as well as the recently completed South Cambridge Science Centre that sits adjacent to the Phase 2 development. The area is already home to numerous life science and technology companies, and current occupiers at Accelerator Park Phase 1 include Echion Technologies, Immaterial and Pulpex.

An fully-fledged campus for innovative R&D, tech and production uses, Phase 2 of Accelerator Park offers three GMP ready, R&D/life sciences buildings, totalling 86,300 sq ft, ranging from 20,000 to 35,000 sq ft.

With ESG high on the agenda, the development’s sustainability credentials include BREEAM ‘Excellent’ and EPC A ratings, with EV charging, PV panels, enhanced site-wide biodiversity, zero waste to landfill, and a rich, landscaped environment for occupiers to enjoy.

Sam Walker, director of Canmoor, said: “We are delighted to have completed the development of Phase 2 at Accelerator Park in only 11 months.

This high-quality business space provides hybrid flexible accommodation for cost-conscious occupiers wanting to be part of this thriving South Cambridgeshire life science cluster.”

Max Bryan, Bidwells’ head of laboratory & office agency, science & technology lead, said: “The prime location already boasts a vibrant blend of both global brands and local technology-based companies, and Phase 2 has been designed to suit a range of occupiers.”
