Market Buildings is an attractive grade II listed building, arranged over six floors. It forms the main entrance to Cardiff Market and provides approximately 21,000 sq ft of mixed accommodation, including office, retail and leisure use. Tenants include Paddy Power, Welsh Language Commissioner and Future Generations Commissioner for Wales. There is a small amount of vacant accommodation within the building.
Caryl Howell, investment surveyor with Cooke & Arkwright, said: “We are very happy to have completed on this deal. The property was built in 1886 and has been in Sellar’s ownership since 1997. Now under new ownership, the property is entering a new phase of its life cycle with The Thackeray Estate showing great enthusiasm to utilise the building, taking advantage of the opportunities available in the fast moving Cardiff property market. I look forward to seeing its journey unfold.”
