333 Bath Street, G2
Maven acquired 333 Bath Street, adjacent to the Kings Theatre in Glasgow’s city centre, as a vacant office building and worked closely with developer partner, Calmont Property Group, to carry out a multi-million pound redevelopment of the site to provide 70 studio apartments over six floors. These highly-specified studios have access to extensive common space with a residents’ club lounge, dinner party room, private gym, on-site cinema room, seminar rooms, a quiet reading room and games area.
