Project 2095

Set within the heart of St Albans is the well known "Rug shop" building. Purchased by our clients in 2021 as an investment the current building was unloved and in need of serious work to bring it back to life. 

We began by stripping it back to its bare bones to carry out some structural investigation to allow us to work on a design to add another floor to the building. After a drawn out planning resubmission we were given the green light to carry out an in-depth structural rebuild of a good portion of the building, this meant it was now sufficient structurally to add a fourth floor. 

Converting a redundant barber shop, we then were able to deliver five high end finish apartments set over three floors and a refurbished retail unit. 

The fifth floor apartment includes views across the city of St Albans most notably the historic cathedral and city centre.
