68-72 James Street · Cardiff Bay
A period corner building, ready for new homes.
A consented Cardiff Bay scheme, available to a housing association partner in two ways: as a turnkey development, or as an outright acquisition.

The opportunity
Character outside, modern homes inside.
68-72 James Street is a characterful brick corner building in the heart of Cardiff Bay. The scheme keeps the period façade and adds a contemporary extension behind it, creating 22 apartments under the existing planning consent.
The layouts can be reworked, for example towards a larger number of one-bedroom homes, to match your standards and funding criteria.
Any change to the unit mix is subject to planning. Drawings, cost plan and programme are available on request.
Two routes
Choose the route that fits your programme.
Turnkey development
We develop and build the scheme for you as one Design & Build package. We carry the development and construction risk; you fund in stages and take handover of completed, ready-to-let homes.
Outright acquisition
You acquire the building with its planning consent, lock, stock and barrel, and deliver it with your own contractor and design team. Drawings, surveys and cost plan are available to support your appraisal.
Turnkey route: how it works
A simple route from first call to handover.
Introductory call
We walk you through the building, drawings, costs and timeline.
Agree the brief

One contract
A Design & Build package with an agreed price and programme.
