Consensus Capital identified this site for a strategic residential development in the heart of the City Centre of Glasgow. Plans are underway to provide a newly built 15-storey tower of 100 studio and one-bedroom apartments which will be located on the site close to Charing Cross to help meet a growing demand for homes. If approved by planners, it is hoped work on the £20million project will start in Spring 2021 with a completion date set for June 2022. It is anticipated the development will create around 40 jobs. The proposal will create significant economic benefit to the local area, encouraging key workers and graduates to remain in the city and providing a highly connected location for city-centre living.  

In another bid to increase residential accommodation in the city centre of Glasgow, Consensus Capital are in the process of obtaining planning permission to convert an office building into residential flats. The site is located in central Glasgow on St Enoch Square and includes the upper floors of 26-32 St Enoch Square. The proposals comprise the change of use from Class 4 Offices to form 30 new residential apartments, including a complete internal refurbishment of the buildings at first floor level and above, as well as renovating the frontage of the listed building. These plans work towards meeting the aim of Glasgow City Council’s strategy to increase residential property in the city centre.  

Consensus Capital are at the planning stage of this exciting new venture to deliver a brand new 67-bed care home situated in the mature grounds of the former Royal Dundee Liff Hospital. The former hospital and grounds have been recently converted to create a wonderful and vibrant village setting for the new facility, which will mainly focus on delivering a specialist centre for dementia care and will feature elements of elderly living, elderly care. With a fast-growing population, and growing elderly demographic within the wider region, Liff Care Facility will provide Consensus with an opportunity to run and grow their presence within the care sector whilst providing an unrivalled home in a tranquil and peaceful setting.  

44 York Place is located in the city centre of Edinburgh in the retail and leisure hub of Picardy Place. The building was formerly an HMRC office that was extended and converted into a 127 room hotel. Consensus Capital developed the hotel concept for this building which had been empty for three years. Consensus Capital applied for the planning permission for the change of use and designed the conversion to the specific requirements of the hotel operator. Consensus Capital was successful in arranging a long term lease to the hotel chain Premier Inn and also a forward funding and sale agreement with a pension fund investor to create a project with a investment value of £17m.  

Winchburgh Village is a 347 hectare masterplan for a new residential community 11 miles west of Edinburgh. The total capital investment required to deliver the project is over £1 billion making this one of the UK’s largest mixed use projects currently in progress. The masterplan brings together over 20 years of partnership between two major landlowners in the West Lothian. Consensus Capital has been an investor in this project since the concept was first developed. The first phase of residential development has been completed by a number of major housebuilders and work is now ongoing with the community facilities and transport infrastructure.

The Horizon Building is newly constructed apartment block at Lochend Park View a short distance east of the city centre of Edinburgh and close to the open green spaces of Lochend Park, Calton Hill and Holyrood Park. Consensus Capital purchased a cleared brownfield development site from a housebuilder who had become insolvent during the financial crisis. Consensus Capital then obtained the planning permission for the current mix of 1-bed, 2-bed and 3-bed apartments, and with a main contractor built the six-storey property to specification for the housing association Hillcrest Group. The project was completed in 2014 and provides 48 new affordable homes.

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.
