Brought forward by the team developing Apex Lofts (below), next door, Sapphire Court lies within the Southern Gateway & the emerging Rea Valley Urban Quarter, which seeks to create a high quality sustainable mixed-use urban living environment.
Currently accommodating the Sapphire Conference and Banqueting Suite, the site is free to be redeveloped to provide a car-free, H-shaped, 6-8 storey residential development comprising 166 new homes & 166 cycle spaces.
Two new entrances would be created onto both Warwick Street & Bradford Street, with two large communal gardens formed alongside a residential mix of 68 one & 98 two-bedroom apartments (1-4 persons), including 18 duplexes.
Seventeen of the apartments would be made available for low-cost home ownership.
The development is 10m Group's third Birmingham development, after Apex Lofts and Fountain Works - all Digbeth-based.
