Two major office buildings at Salford Quays have been put up for sale for more than £30m.

Anchorage One and Anchorage Two, which sit opposite a Metrolink stop and overlook Erie Basin, are being marketed by landlord Investcorp and asset manager Citivale.

The pair have appointed property agents CBRE to find a buyer for the recently refurbished scheme, with offers being sought in excess of £30m.

Together, the two blocks provide over 150,000 sq ft of office space at the heart of the Quays.

Anchorage One rises to seven floors and offers around 32,000 sq ft of workspace. Its neighbour, Anchorage Two, is the larger of the two buildings at 10 storeys, providing roughly 111,000 sq ft.

The offices are home to several major tenants, including the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, which occupies around 37,000 sq ft, and Morgan Sindall Construction, which has 12,000 sq ft in the building.

Investcorp bought the buildings for around £38m in 2021. A sale at the currently sought price would represent a reduction on that figure, reflecting wider shifts in the office property market since the pandemic.

The move follows a separate attempt by Peel Group to sell its nearby Harbour City office complex for £40.3m in 2023. Harbour City, which totals around 182,000 sq ft, sits a short distance from Anchorage One and Two, though it was reported that no deal was ultimately agreed there.
