New business centre created in Chesterfield town centre following £800,000 investment

A prominent Chesterfield town centre building has been given a new lease of life, and is soon set to become a business centre to meet the needs of contemporary professionals and businesses.

York House, on St. Mary’s Gate will now be known as York House Business Centre following the transformation of the property by Sovereign Assets & Developments.

A significant investment in the region of £800,000 has been made to ensure York House is at the forefront of workspace solutions in Chesterfield.

The development includes a substantial refurbishment to introduce a range of high-quality, serviced self-contained offices, workspaces and a coffee shop.

The company says standout features of York House which led them to invest in the premises include:

  • Prime location in central Chesterfield, offering accessibility and visibility.
  • Flexibility with a variety of office sizes and layouts to cater to different business needs.
  • High-speed internet connectivity to ensure productivity is never hampered.
  • Modern amenities including meeting rooms, communal kitchen area and a coffee shop
  • A sleek finish to every office, designed to inspire creativity and professionalism.

A spokesperson for the developer commented: “At York House Business Centre, we’ve been diligently transforming this iconic building into a modern, functional business centre designed to meet the needs of contemporary professionals and businesses.

“Our vision for York House is to create a space that not only serves as a practical work environment but also fosters a community of innovation and growth for all its members.

“Every corner of York House has been reimagined to offer the perfect blend of heritage charm and modern convenience, with state-of-the-art facilities that businesses need to thrive in today’s fast-paced world.

“The choice to develop York House into business units was driven by the building’s innate potential and Chesterfield’s growing demand for quality office space. We recognised the opportunity to create something that could truly make a difference for local and incoming businesses.

“York House will play a pivotal role in growing the local economy by attracting diverse businesses and talents to the area. By providing top-notch facilities, we’re helping start-ups, scale-ups, and established companies to operate efficiently, which in turn will generate job opportunities and stimulate economic activity.

“Through York House, we’re excited to contribute to Chesterfield’s growth, helping the town to become an even more desirable place for businesses to set up and flourish.”

The company has also cited several reasons as to why it believes Chesterfield is incredibly attractive to businesses:

  • Strategic location near major cities like Sheffield and Nottingham, while also providing easy access to the Peak District.
  • Excellent transport links, including proximity to the M1 motorway, rail services, and airports.
  • A rich industrial heritage translated into a strong work ethic among the local population.
  • Competitive cost of living and business operation compared to larger cities.
  • Continued investment in local infrastructure, making it a town that’s on the up.
