From Ugly Duckling to Swan: The Transformation of Our New Business Centre

In 2023, ADSI Holdings Ltd acquired Jupiter House, a 13,000 sq. ft. building situated on the corner of Paycocke Road and Gardiners Lane South, Basildon. The building, though large and well-positioned, was in a state of disrepair. Despite its dilapidated condition, the prime location—surrounded by retail and commercial parks with excellent transport links—presented a unique opportunity.

Adrian Spreadborough, Owner of ADSI Holdings Ltd, reflects: “The previous occupants had opted for an open-plan layout across both floors, but the overall décor was tired and outdated. Our original plan was to lease the space to a single large business. However, market conditions made us reconsider, leading to a complete reimagining of the property.

"We embarked on an ambitious refurbishment project, aiming to transform the building into a prestigious business centre. The vision was clear: to create a space that catered to the needs of modern professionals, offering more than just a place to work, but an environment that encouraged productivity, creativity, and comfort.”

With the help of an architect and designer, the building underwent a significant transformation. The outdated interior was replaced with a modern layout featuring over thirty office suites and workspaces, designed to accommodate businesses of all sizes. The refurbishment was not just about aesthetics; it included the integration of cutting-edge technology and infrastructure to meet the demands of today’s fast-paced business world.


“The refurbishment was a monumental challenge,” says Adrian. “Over eight months, a dedicated team of builders, surveyors, decorators, electricians, and technicians worked tirelessly to breathe new life into the building.”

In May 2024, the newly christened Jupiter Business Centre opened its doors. The transformation was nothing short of remarkable. The once outdated structure now exudes sophistication and modernity, from the moment you step into the staffed reception area. The space, highlighted by wood and glass accents and a stunning chandelier, immediately sets a tone of professionalism and elegance.

Throughout the centre, the attention to detail is evident. Contemporary artwork, carefully selected to inspire creativity, adorns the walls, while a palette of modern colours enhances the overall aesthetic. Each office suite is fully furnished with sleek desks, ergonomic chairs, and glass partitions that balance privacy with openness. The environment is designed to support both functionality and style, creating a workspace where businesses can truly thrive.

Sue Dennison, Marketing Manager emphasises the building’s unique appeal: “Walking through the centre, it’s clear what sets it apart. The blend of style and functionality is seamless, making it more than just a place to work.”

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the Jupiter Business Centre is equipped with state-of-the-art technology. Fast internet, enhanced cellular coverage, and a secure smartphone-based access system ensure that tenants can work efficiently and safely. CCTV surveillance and ample parking further add to the convenience and security of the centre.

Special attention was also given to everyday conveniences. High-spec kitchens are not only functional but also equipped with Quooker taps for instant boiling and filtered water. Complimentary refreshments, including Lavazza coffee, tea, and hot chocolate, are always available. Even the washrooms are designed with quality in mind, featuring the latest Dyson technology and showers, perfect for those who want to squeeze in a workout during the day.

All these amenities are included in the monthly rent, providing an exceptional experience for tenants. For moments that require privacy or collaboration, luxury meeting rooms and a soundproof pod are available for hire, offering a premium environment tailored to the needs of modern businesses.
