Melford Capital completes £80M+ Edinburgh office acquisition of 200,000 sq ft asset

Melford Capital, a specialist UK real estate investor, completed the purchase of a 200,000-square-foot office building in Edinburgh for in excess of £80 million. The deal was reported by Green Street News on 7 April 2026. Edinburgh's office market has been one of the most resilient in the UK, with strong occupier demand from financial services, technology, and the public sector, combined with limited new supply constraining vacancy. The transaction follows Green Street's earlier report of Melford Capital's interest in Waverleygate on North Bridge, Edinburgh, which Kennedy Wilson reportedly sold in January 2026 for approximately £78-85 million. The April completion represents either a separate transaction or the confirmed close of that deal at a price exceeding £80 million. Edinburgh's prime office yields are among the tightest in the UK outside London.
