From a rendering to a reality. This featured project shines at the corner of McKinney and Fitzhugh Avenues in the highly sought after uptown area of Dallas. The layout of the residences takes advantage of stellar views of Downtown with unique elevated courtyards featuring large trees planted two stories above the ground in large structured vaults for the root base.

When people talk about old buildings/houses they normally think about Victorian or maybe Georgian the mass produced housing of its time. More often when I'm talking about true sustainability I'm think of buildings like this. Occupied, reused, remodelled and still going! Our historic buildings have always changed to meet societies needs. They are often resilient, sustainable and capable of adaptive reuse. #climateaction #maintenanceisresiliance
Is this the oldest house in England? Saltford Manor House in Somerset is a Norman house dating from around 1150. In 2003, it won a ‘Country Life’ contest to find the ‘oldest continuously inhabited house in Britain’. In the medieval period, the Earls of Gloucester owned the land on which the manor was built, but it’s most likely that a tenant constructed the building. Major remodelling occurred in the 15th century when a large chimney stack was inserted, and the ground floor was modified to form further high-status rooms.

Revitalizing Baltimore's West Side: The Crook Horner Lofts Story 🌆 Exciting news for Baltimore's west side. The Crook Horner Lofts, a redevelopment project at 303 N. Howard Street, is set to bring new life to this historic area. This revitalization effort is not just about adding new structures; it's about preserving and honoring the past while embracing the future. 🏗️ The lofts, which will officially open on November 29, are a symbol of the city's commitment to rejuvenating its west side. These aren't just any apartments; they are a transformation of a once-vacant industrial building, blending history with modern living. 🏡 Imagine living in a space with 14-foot ceilings and dramatically arched windows, reminiscent of Baltimore's historic charm. The Crook Horner Lofts, named after the old plumbing supply company that once occupied the building, offer 15 units of sprawling loft work apartments, providing a unique blend of work and living spaces. 🌍 This project adds to the vibrancy of North Howard Street, introducing live/work loft apartments that not only provide new housing options but also contribute to the cultural and economic growth of the area. 🌟 As we witness the transformation of these long-vacant historic properties, it's clear that Baltimore is on a path to revitalizing not just buildings, but communities. The Crook Horner Lofts are more than just apartments; they are a testament to Baltimore's resilience and vision for the future. #BaltimoreRevival #CrookHornerLofts #UrbanTransformation #HistoricPreservation

Could the tallest building in the US be located in… Oklahoma City?! 😮 The Oklahoma City Council has just lifted previous height restrictions, paving the way for the development of a 1,907-foot tower. If constructed, the Legends Tower – the brainchild of developer Matteson Capital and architecture studio AO – would be the tallest building in the US. And it’s safe to say that it’d definitely stand out, as it would be more than double the height of the state’s current tallest building. The planned structure includes 86 levels of luxury residences, 12 levels of penthouses, a 16-level Hyatt hotel, and interestingly, no office space. Is it a good idea to build such a huge skyscraper in a tornado-prone area with a population of only around 700,000 people? We’re not convinced yet, but we’ll be keeping an eye on the plans – especially to see if there are any commitments to making the space healthy and sustainable 👀 #Building #Construction #ESG

Over the last 150-year period, the world has undergone a rate of exponential change but isn't incredible to think that Calderwood Lodge, in one shape or form, has remained all this entire time? Our 'Heritage' Collection may now comprise four luxury apartments but it was once home to someone, a family perhaps who, in comparison to the burgeoning industry along the Clyde, were most likely involved in farming, with the burghs surrounding Calderwood Lodge focused on agriculture, but the city changed and so did the burghs with the now recognised southside of Glasgow built up to accommodate an ever-rising working population. The sandstone villa with its classic architectural features remained though, and was under use until the 1960s before transitioning to become a school. To accommodate more pupils, a newly built classroom block was constructed in the 1970s and from then onwards, Calderwood Lodge was known as a leading Jewish school until its closure and movement to new premises in 2017. Calderwood Lodge is now re-born and you can now be part of this rich heritage with Plot 5, an elegant two-bedroom duplex apartment reaching 1149sqft and priced from £450,000.

When planning all our developments, we try to release the properties for sale in stages. This ensures that our investors receive a return on investment as soon as practically possible and we do not flood the market. 👌 For The Strand, we’re releasing each of 🏡 the properties in line with their associated landscaping being finalised. This strategy allows the potential new home owner to fully appreciate the curb appeal as much as the high quality interiors. This approach encourages much stronger offers. 1️⃣ First to be released are the apartments. The Wensum, The Bure, and The Glaven. 2️⃣ Then the townhouses. Waveney House and Babingley House. 3️⃣ Followed by the detached house, The Queensbury. #thestrand #thestrandsheringham #luxuryapartments #victoriantownhouses #victorianvillas #detachedhouse #sheringham #norfolkcoast #northnorfolk #sowerbys #investinproperty #investmentopportunities
