As New Islington completes its transformation into a bustling waterfront community, more new businesses will add to the buzz of the neighbourhood from this month. Chef and author Pippy Eats will open Noodlehaus on the Marina, while wine-bar Flawd will launch its ‘natural wine and beer offering’ next-door; Mezze bar and kitchen, and beauty salon Blush will also move into the area in a few months’ time.

We’ve released our annual results for the financial year ending 30th September 2020, announcing a 22% increase* in turnover, £39.4 million of sales, and an increase in the value of our tangible fixed assets which now exceed £100 million – a £5m growth on the prior year.

Great news for customers hoping to move to Port Loop in Birmingham; our newest Row House homes, pictured here for the first time, are now on sale – with prices from £390,000. This is the first time our Row House offering will be available at Port Loop, and customers can head to our online configurator to design their dream layout.

Even more businesses are flocking to the waterfront this month as we prepare to welcome customers to Melville – our newest building at Royal William Yard. More than 90% of space at the building is now either let or under offer to businesses including Hubbox restaurant and Everyman Cinema who will move into Melville on completion. The Yard’s programme of events has also relaunched this month too.

More residents have moved into New Islington in Manchester this month, as the Urban Splash Residential Fund completed lettings on 30 new homes in the area.

Introducing #MyHUS, a brand-new competition we’re hosting each month on Instagram.

The prize will change each month, so make you stay up to date with our Instagram posts to find out what the latest prize is.

Nestled amongst waterparks and the Cambridgeshire countryside are our newest House by Urban Splash homes at Inholm, Northstowe. Among them is 14 Lockhart Way, a three-storey, three-bedroom Town House with 139 sq m of space, a spacious open-plan ground floor – with an island kitchen at its heart, as well as high ceilings and big windows.

Our newest workspaces at Richmond Street are now available. We’ve restored this building – located in the vibrant Gay Village – to create self-contained workspace packed with original features; think beautiful, exposed brickwork, beams and pillars.

“Superbly restored”
