The £3 million project to restore 25 of the empty homes and create an additional four new homes began in 2011. Over 100 years old, the two-bedroom terraced houses bore a character and charm unique to the city and retaining those qualities was an important aspect of the project.
The technically ambitious redevelopment included renovation aspects to retain the Victorian street frontage while the buildings behind were demolished and rebuilt to create contemporary new homes built to modern standards.
