An accountancy firm with offices across the England has opened its first base in Staffordshire as it works to strengthen its footprint in the West Midlands.
Streets Chartered Accountants has moved into premises within the Grade II*-listed Stowe House, a former residential building dating back to 1750 which has also been used as a nurse’s home and management training centre.
It is the company’s 23rd office, and the second new one to open within the last 12 months.
The office is home to more than 15 employees, including a specialist tax team, and has created four new jobs.
James Pinchbeck, Marketing Partner for Streets, said: “Stowe is the latest office for our rapidly expanding practice which now has 23 offices from Brighton in the South to Colchester in the East and Manchester in the North.
“Streets chose Stowe House, Lichfield, as it is ideally placed in terms of servicing our growing client base in Staffordshire as well as more widely across the West Midlands.
“Along with being a new home for members of our accountancy team, our more specialist corporate tax and business development teams will also be based there.
“The office with its contemporary refurbishment provides an ideal setting for a professional firm like Streets both for our colleagues that will work there but also clients looking to visit.”
The letting was agreed with the support of commercial property firm Burley Browne.
Senior Associate Director Ben Nicholson added: “We are delighted to have been able to assist with this letting at Stowe House and to have been able to introduce a company such as Streets Accountants to the area.
“We wish Streets every success in their new premises and hope that the move to Lichfield assists with their continued expansion.”
