At Circa45, we’re not just reshaping real estate—we’re breathing new life into the Home Counties. Our vision for urban regeneration goes beyond simply revamping tired towns; it’s about revitalizing the places we call home. We're transforming underused spaces into vibrant, eco-friendly communities that blend the charm of the countryside with the convenience of modern living.
We’re taking neglected areas across the Home Counties and turning them into thriving hubs of activity—complete with green spaces, sustainable infrastructure, and community-focused design. Our projects bring new energy and opportunity to towns, setting a new standard for low-carbon living. This isn’t just about adding value to properties; it’s about enhancing the quality of life and creating places where families, businesses, and communities can truly flourish.
With Circa45, urban regeneration means putting the Home Counties on the map for the right reasons. We’re creating sustainable communities that honor the past while embracing the future. Join us in setting the stage for a new era of growth, right in the heart of England.
At Circa45, we’re taking advantage of recent shifts in planning laws to unlock the true potential of underused commercial spaces. The 2024 changes to office-to-residential conversion legislation have opened the door to new possibilities, making it easier and faster to transform vacant buildings into high-quality homes. With the removal of the two-year vacancy, marketing, and area caps, more properties can now be converted without the usual red tape, offering a low-risk, high-reward opportunity for investors.
These updates allow us to act quickly and decisively, converting secondary stock into sustainable, energy-efficient residential units. Each project reduces the carbon footprint by repurposing existing structures, while also helping to meet the growing demand for housing across the Home Counties. Our approach isn’t just about building homes; it’s about revitalizing spaces and creating communities where people want to live.
Circa45’s strategy combines smart planning with the latest legislation to deliver projects that make a real difference—transforming dormant properties into vibrant living spaces that add value to both investors and local communities. With these changes, we’re able to deliver rapid planning uplift and sustainable development, making the most of every opportunity.
At Circa45, Build-to-Rent is more than just a development model—it’s about creating quality homes where people can truly thrive. As rental demand continues to soar, especially in the Home Counties, we’re addressing the need for high-quality, long-term rental options designed for modern living. Our Build-to-Rent projects focus on more than just bricks and mortar; we’re building communities that blend comfort, sustainability, and convenience.
Each development is designed to meet Future Homes Standards, integrating renewable energy and sustainable materials to minimize environmental impact. Our approach ensures that residents enjoy not only well-designed living spaces but also access to green areas, communal amenities, and excellent transport links. We’re raising the bar for rental living, making it about more than just a place to stay—it’s about a place to belong.
With Circa45, Build-to-Rent developments aren’t just another investment; they’re a commitment to creating sustainable, thriving communities. Our projects are built to last and positioned to deliver steady returns while meeting the evolving lifestyle needs of today’s renters. It’s not just about providing a roof over people's heads; it’s about offering a better way of living.
