Sweet success: Contractor wins city centre residential project
Bristol-based construction firm Sweet Construct have been appointed by developer Acorn Property Group to deliver the regeneration of Alliance House, an exciting residential development in Bristol’s city centre.
Alliance House in Baldwin Street, Bristol, will comprise a modern collection of high-quality starter homes, with forty-four studio and 1-bedroom apartments along with commercial space to the ground and basement floors. The project is the latest regeneration site for Acorn’s Bristol region and follows on from several other schemes including Brandon Yard opposite Brunel’s SS Great Britain, Loft House in Bishopston and Brooks Dye Works in St Werburghs.
Every home at Alliance House will feature a high-quality specification with design tailored for a vibrant city centre lifestyle, with attention to detail meaning every home will have bright, open-plan living spaces and lots of natural light. The development will also offer secure bike storage for residents, and a secure video-entry system.
Sweet Construct work across the region to deliver civils, construction and fit-out services for projects in multiple sectors. The latest appointment further strengthens the company’s growing foothold in the residential sector and adds to a run of successes in project wins and completions during 2020.
Robin Squire, Regional Managing Director of Acorn’s Bristol office commented "Sweet Construct’s expertise in this sector is clear and we look forward to working with them to deliver this scheme, breathing new life into the historic building, creating apartments with a high-quality specification and modern design, well suited for First Time Buyers looking to get their foot on the property ladder, and for investors.
Martyn Osborne, Joint Managing Director of Sweet Construct added: “We are delighted to have been appointed to this scheme, especially in such a prominent city-centre location. Our experience in the sector means we are extremely well-placed to deliver and we hope it will be the start of an ongoing and mutually successful relationship with Acorn Property Group.”
Construction for the project has already commenced and will be completed at the end of 2021.
