TOP AWARD FOR GUNMAKERS WHARF
A STOCKWOOL-designed residential development scooped a top award at the Inside Housing Top 60 Development Awards ceremony in London last week – the fourth it has won in the last five years.
Gunmakers Wharf, a development of 72 homes for sale (plus four shared ownership, 15 market rent and 30 social rent) made up of studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments, regenerated a brownfield site that was formerly a derelict paint factory. The scheme, for A2Dominion, uses green roofing to create a natural habitat for local wildlife and reduce the effects of urban rainwater run-off.
In awarding the scheme the prestigious Market Sale Development of the Year award, the judges comments included: “This is a charmingly understated development that has a fantastically clean and modern feel.”
