GO-AHEAD RECOMMENDED FOR 14 STOREY RESI BLOCK

Located at the junction of Ladywood Middleway and Morville Street – on the former site of Five Ways Health Centre & more recently, a flower shop – the vacant site is earmarked for demolition to make way for this 14 storey tower.

Designed with the stacking of two blocks set at different angles, the red brick building – containing stretcher and recessed stacked bond to add visual articulation – will yield 80 one and two bedroom apartments, in a mix of 33 one & 47 two bedrooms.

9 apartments (11%) has been designated as affordable and these will be available at 75% of market value.

Morville Street Developments Ltd – a team led by Mark Holbeche of Regal Property Group, and William Houle, of Trigram Properties – are behind the redevelopment, with Glancy Nicholls Architects designing the scheme.

dndimg alt="" dndsrc="https://www.yourplaceyourspace.net/uploadedfiles/Morville%207%20-%202021%20Update.png" />

Well considered in its design, scale, material and design quality, the building enhances its local distinctiveness & follows the alignment of its boundaries and street frontages; before cleverly stepping back to an orthogonal form on the eighth floor, as it faces the adjacent Lincoln Tower.

It’ll feature a double floor base with four sets of three floors grouped through the elevation and topped with an open crown around an open-air roof garden space.

All windows will be metal framed and topped off with a natural copper finish.

AMENITIES

A private walled garden (160sqm) and work-from-home space (50sqm) will be provided at ground floor level. On the upper floors, a private roof-top garden with green roof & bio-solar roof panels (241sqm) will become the crowning feature of the development.

dndimg alt="" dndsrc="https://www.yourplaceyourspace.net/uploadedfiles/Morville%2010%20-%202021%20Update.png" />

Predominately a car-free affair, Morville Street will see the inclusion of 30 internal and 50 external cycle spaces – the former at ground floor level & the latter within the new courtyard.
