LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Real estate investment trust Workspace has completed the sale of its Morie Street asset in Wandsworth and exchanged contracts on the sale of Castle Lane in Victoria for a combined total of £22.4m.
Workspace said on Thursday that the aggregate sale price was 3% below the March 2025 valuation and at a net initial yield of 4.3%.

The FTSE 250-listed group stated Morie Street was made up of 22,000 square feet of office and studio space, while Castle Lane was a 14,000 square foot office building.

Due to their size, both assets were identified as "low conviction buildings" for Workspace following a thorough review of the portfolio as part of Workspace's "Fix, Accelerate and Scale" strategy.

Chief executive Lawrence Hutchings said: "We are making good progress in delivering our strategy to fix, accelerate and scale the business, and our new conviction approach to portfolio management is a key part of our plan. These disposals are consistent with our disciplined approach to recycling capital out of smaller, non-core locations and into our conviction buildings where we can really add value to our creative and innovative SME customers and, in turn, maximise value for our shareholders."
