The block will have new windows and external repairs to make it feel like purpose-built apartments, along with ‘high specification’ interiors, the firm says.
The aim is to appeal to ‘young professionals looking to live in a highly desirable area with great connectivity’.
Headoffice3 boss Glen Harding said: “The conversion of existing buildings has grown at an unprecedented rate since the relaxation of planning laws in 2013 but it’s not an easy task.”
