Commercial-to-residential repositioning for a private investor.

Consulting on the off-market acquisition and full redevelopment of a former glass and glazing business, converting it into a carbon-neutral, luxury residential scheme. The asset—previously underperforming as an industrial unit due to its suburban location—was reimagined as a high-spec apartment development, aligned with local demand and sustainability targets.

The project featured an advanced energy strategy to optimise long-term thermal efficiency and preserve market value. Delivered on time and on budget, the completed scheme was sold via private treaty and stands as a benchmark for sustainable repositioning in transitional suburban settings
