With the exterior incorporating a variety of finishes to give the development a fresh modern feel.

Project Progess - 1st October, 2024
“254-260 oxford street is a refurbishment from old flats, retail units and storage space in the centre of Swansea, it will become 33 social housing flats for client Caredig, and 6 refurbished retail units at street level on the front for our other client Kartay. Having just completed 8 months of demolition and steelwork, we are now moving onto superstructures stage having nearly finished Phase 1 on our timber frame extension creating a 3rd floor on the property and cutting in corridor openings and windows. We will be aiming to be fully watertight before Christmas, to begin internals and cladding works in the new year, to put us on track to finish the project by August 2025.” Euan Edwards, Site Manager Morganstone.
