Addington, the investment and asset management specialist has let a circa 4,500 sq. ft. restaurant, 16-17 Kirkgate, Leeds to “Home”, the fine dining experience.
“Home” is being set up by Elizabeth Cottam, the much praised semi-finalist of last year’s BBC MasterChef and her business partner Mark Owens, former Head Chef at Michelin-starred The Box Tree in Ilkley. It will be opening its doors in August.
“Home” will be a 65 cover restaurant with bar area, providing fine dining “re-imagined” in a welcoming atmosphere, including offering a ten-course tasting menu and exclusive chef’s table experience.
The company has signed a 10 year lease at a rent of 39,000 pax with 9 months rent free.
Commenting, Alex Wagstaff of Addington said, “ We are delighted to have attracted Home as a new tenant into our property. Leeds City Centre has grown in stature over recent years with significant investment and redevelopment. Elizabeth Cottam’s restaurant will create further interest and I’m sure will be a huge success”
Addington acquired 16-17 Kirkgate at the end of 2015, as part of the £60 million Retail Plus Portfolio acquired from Rockspring.
The agents on the letting were Barker Proudlove and Rees Denton.
