Winvic Completes Award Winning Build to Rent Scheme
6/2/25
Winvic Construction Ltd has announced the completion of The Bath House, a Build-to-Rent (BTR) development in the centre of Birmingham.
The project, delivered for Edmond de Rothschild Real Estate Investment Management (REIM), offers 406 quality, purpose-built apartments on the historic site of the former Kent Street Swimming Baths.
Designed by Glenn Howells Architects and engineered by Hexa Consulting Limited, the scheme consists of four residential blocks ranging from seven to 18 storeys, comprising a mix of one, two and three-bed studios as well as three-bed duplex apartments.
Offering views of Birmingham's cityscape, the tallest tower fully overlooks the local area.
The Bath House received national recognition from the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) National Site Awards in 2024 and won the Social Value Impact Award in BTR in this year's Love to Rent Awards.
Mark Jones, Managing Director for Multi-room at Winvic, said: "The Bath House goes beyond offering high-quality living spaces. This vibrant community redefines urban living with its shared spaces and ground-floor commercial units that will further enhance the Kent Street area, contributing to Birmingham's regeneration.
"I'd like to thank Edmond de Rothschild, the entire Winvic team, and our supply chain partners who contributed to the successful delivery of The Bath House.
"This development stands as a testament to Winvic's commitment to shaping the future of city living while creating valuable employment and training opportunities for local residents and young people."
James Whidborne, Head of Residential Fund Management (UK), added: "At 406 apartments The Bath House is now our largest scheme and testament to our conviction to deliver good quality but affordable housing across the UK.
"We're confident the Bath House will be a catalyst for yet further regeneration across southern Birmingham and with the arrival of HS2 these are exciting times for the UK's second city. Winvic have been an exemplary construction partner, allowing us the confidence to invest in a project of this scale."
