Craigievar House: 77 Craigmount Brae, Edinburgh

Craigievar House is located in the East Craigs area of Edinburgh and was previously the regional office of the housing association Blackwood Homes which was founded by the social rights campaigner Dr Margaret Blackwood MBE. The building had been empty and redundant for a number of year before Consensus Capital proposed the re-design and re-use of the property. Consent was granted for the conversion and extension to create 44 residential apartments for the housing association Places for People, 100% of which were Affordable Homes. After completion the development was shortlisted as a finalist for Renovation of the Year at the Scottish Home Awards.
