A skin clinic has taken the ground floor of a historic building in Reading.
The ground floor of The Maltings, a refurbished 19th Century building in Fobney Street, once part of the Simonds Brewery, has been let to Milan Skin Clinic on a 20-year lease.
The clinic has taken a 20-year lease on the ground floor of the building which was used as a Loch Fyne restaurant until 2018. Vail Williams and Hicks Baker acted for landlord MKJ Property.
Vail Williams surveyor James Newton said: “The Grade II-listed Maltings provides stylish and versatile space in a highly desirable and convenient town centre location.
“Many period features of the original building have been retained, combining with a high standard refurbishment throughout to create a unique, high quality working environment.
“After strong interest in this property, which overlooks the River Kennet, I was pleased to be able to facilitate the letting to Milan Skin Clinic and I will be interested to see how the building is utilised.”
Some modern elements were added to the building’s interior after a fire in the early 1990s.
Omar Sheikh, director of marketing for Milan Skin Clinic, said the business was rebranding and expanding to a second base to complement its headquarters in Oxford Road.
He added: “The Maltings proved to be irresistible for us to base our unique skin clinic with our team of dedicated skin therapists and highly experienced medical practitioners, offering more than 100 different treatments.
“We are indebted to Vail Williams for sourcing this property for us and we continue to grow our concept of providing specialist skin and body treatments together with aesthetics all under one roof.”
The first and second floors (up to 1,419 sq ft) remain available.
