Office demand in Milton Keynes surged to a seven-year high in the first half of 2025, spurred by major regional developments like the proposed Universal Studios theme park.

While take-up dipped and secondary space pushed availability up to 16.3%, prime rents climbed to a record £38.50 psf and requirements soared to over 460,000 sq ft. With 64,000 sq ft already under offer and a major refurbishment at Verve in the pipeline, the city’s office market signals strong potential for recovery and growth. Explore the full Arc Market Databook for insight into development, investment trends and what’s driving the resurgence in demand.
