Developer behind Birmingham’s most expensive penthouse unveils new scheme

THE property firm responsible for Birmingham’s most expensive apartment has unveiled its newest project.

Elevate Property Group was the developer behind Concord House, Holloway Head where the top penthouse apartment sold for almost £1.8m (see below).

The firm his hoping its latest development in the city centre – Queensway House – proves just as popular with city living enthusiasts looking for high specification property close to the main business district.

Queensway House is located at 57 Livery Street and sits between St Paul’s Square and the city’s business district – just 50 yards from the rear entrance to Snow Hill Station.

The project was a redundant office building and each floor has now been converted to a triple aspect apartment with views to the city’s central business district and Jewellery Quarter.

Steve Dodd, managing director, Elevate said: “When we acquired Queensway House we knew we would develop something special. This development offers spacious apartments and luxury interiors rarely seen elsewhere in the city.

“By fusing an industrial aesthetic with the unique history of the building, our designers have crafted a living experience quite unlike any other.”

Creative director Chris Brooke has taken as his inspiration the vintage industrial style first seen in Concord House.

The apartments range in size from 1,535 sq ft plus terraces to a 2,236 sq ft duplex, all with bespoke German kitchens.

The area around Queensway House has undergone significant change in recent months with new leisure facilities opening nearby in advance of the new development.

Knight Frank is acting as letting agent for the development.

Stuart Eustace, of Knight Frank, said: “This is another unique project from Elevate Property Group, taking an existing city office building and creating something that is entirely bespoke with a high specification.

“With some sales already agreed and a shortage of quality apartments in the city the launch of the show apartment will further boost interest in a fascinating project in a corner of Birmingham that is really coming to life.

“As you would expect, the team have built on the success of Concord House and continue to push the envelope when it comes to design and style.”

Prices range from £525,000 to £650,000 and will be completed and ready for occupation in December.
