This Class MA conversion focuses on transforming vacant office space in a building that has remained unoccupied for 3 years using permitted development rights. Originally plagued by anti-social behavior, our visionary client acquired the property, tasking us with exploring conversion strategies to maximize its development potential. We recommended utilizing Class MA for a residential conversion without requiring external alterations, while ensuring adequate daylighting for the residential units. The conversion provided 14 new apartments situated in a historically beautiful building within a conservation area near Stoke's historic potteries. The corner plot naturally facilitates ample daylighting for a seamless conversion throughout the floor plan.
