FOUNTAIN LOFTS
Fountain Lofts is a boutique two-block development encompassing the historic and recently refurbished 1790s-built The Fountain public house.
The New York-style development, designed to reflect Digbeth’s industrial heritage, accommodates 39 high-end one- and two-bedroom rental apartments over two buildings of three & six storeys.
Rising to six storeys on Alcester Street, with a subservient three-storey on Cheapside, both buildings are set around an attractive internal courtyard, where a spacious communal garden is provided along with spaces for 40 secure bicycles.
