The Button Works, a historic Grade II*-listed Birmingham gem dating back to 1872, is to be sensitively repurposed into 29 apartments.
USE: A disused 1872-built mid-terraced factory will be repurposed into 29 new one- and two-bedroom apartments and duplexes.
The project will essentially introduce a viable new use and protect the building for generations.
Grade II listed, Button Works will provide 20 one- & 9 two-bed apartments and duplexes, with each home retaining its original features such as exposed beams and brickwork.
Set around two intimate courtyards, external changes to the building will see original dormers reinstated at street level, roof lights introduced to the rear, and an external gantry stairwell introduced within the courtyard.
