PFK reveals plans for £2 million new HQ

What PFK’s new HQ could look like

One of Cumbria’s oldest land and estate agents has revealed plans for a new £2 million headquarters in Penrith.

PFK Land and Estate Agents has lodged a planning application for a site in Mile Lane on the edge of Penrith, just a quarter of a mile from their current base.

The building has been designed using a net-zero carbon approach for the company which founded in 1876.

The company estimated 50 jobs will be created in the nine-month construction phase with work set to begin in 2023 on the 8,500 sq ft site if it is given the green light.

Andrew Green, managing director said: “We’ve outgrown our current office accommodation at Skirsgill and by developing land already in the ownership of the Company allows us to continue to expand our Land Agency and Professional Services business into our own bespoke premises on Mile Lane.”

As part of the new HQ, there would be opportunities for Penrith & District Farmers Mart to expand as well as offering similar openings for other small agriculture businesses, the firm said.

“This will be of significant benefit to both businesses in supporting their continued growth and employment offer,” Mr Green said.

“This is a unique opportunity for two thriving local businesses employing a significant number of people from within the community to continue to grow and expand. As a business we are keen to reinforce our local connections and continue to provide the highest standards of service to new and existing clients and suitable office accommodation is a key component of this goal.

“The development of a new head office will provide significant improvements to existing working practices of our head office, land agency, professional services and the administration teams bringing together staff from existing departments who are currently dispersed across smaller offices.”

The company’s estate agent businesses would be unaffected by the move.

“The Mile Land site is located within open countryside; however, it is well related to Penrith in it is located just a short distance to the west and within very close proximity to Junction 40 of the M6 motorway,” said Mr Green, who has been with the company for 10 years.

“The site is also located adjacent to other recently approved employment development sites and as such is considered to be an appropriate location for this type of development.

“In terms of our own business the site is considered to be a highly sustainable location as much of our work requires easy access to transport links to both North and South whilst also retaining our local presence close to our long-established base.”
