Breathing Life and Regeneration into Disused Buildings

Following the success of several recent residential and commercial conversions in the Seaham and Sunderland area, the team behind Clearwater Developments, Ranj Gill and Gursh Kahlon are delighted to be working on Lighthouse View at Spectrum Business Park in Seaham.

The venue has been vacant for over 20 years and was in need significant investment to transform, modernise and regenerate this sea-view building, bringing it fully into use, which is where Clearwater step in! Clearwater Developments are in the process of fully refurbishing and converting the building into a mixed-use venue, offering leisure and office space under one roof.

The conversion of this Building will create hundreds of Job opportunities, bringing considerable further economic benefits and investment to the area. Spectrum Business Park is home to occupiers including DWP, Northumbrian Water, Durham County Council, Trillium and Great Annual Savings, generating good footfall from the office sector. Durham County Council have approved plans for a new community scheme known as Seaham Garden Village, which will see an additional 1500 new homes being built adjacent to the Business Park.

The Lighthouse View building totals over 40,000 square feet and is presently laid out as four separate floor plates of 10,000 square feet, accessed from a central entrance atrium. Ranj Gill said:

“We are pleased to announce that Fit24 have signed up to lease the entire ground floor (over 22,000 square feet), bringing a much-needed, high quality gym and leisure facility to the building and plans to open in March 2023 to Spectrum Business Park and the surrounding area.
