A standout feature of Angel Heights is the retention of the 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗳𝗮ç𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝟲-𝟭𝟮 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗼𝗮𝗱, preserving an important piece of Croydon’s architectural heritage while delivering modern homes.

Throughout the project, we worked closely with the client and contractor to maximise efficiency and overcome challenges. By collaborating on a deed of variation, we facilitated the design and planning adjustments required to increase the number of Shared Ownership units, delivering 134 high-quality homes instead of the originally proposed penthouse apartments.

As the Employer’s Agent and Quantity Surveyor on this project, we were proud to provide key support from inception to completion.
