HARTLEY’S YARD - THORNER , LEEDS, YORKSHIRE

REDEVELOPMENT OF FORMER WORKSHOP INTO 2 COTTAGES

Located in the golden triangle of Yorkshire, this property was project managed by our in-house team at Stangrove. Thorner, is based just 8 miles from Leeds City Centre, making it an ideal location for commuting, and popular with the medical professionals requiring a close proximity to the hospitals. This was an exciting property development for the Stangrove project management team. The building was originally a commercial workshop used by joiners and carpenters. The workshop was relocated to another premises in a local town, and the building prepared to be converted to residential.

PROJECT BRIEF
