Grainger wins Urban and City Living Developer of the Year at Midlands Property Awards 2024

June 2024

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious Urban and City Living Developer of the Year award at the Midlands Residential Property Awards 2024! This recognition from the region is a testament to our commitment to providing high-quality, stylish homes for rent in vibrant urban areas across the Midlands.

Over the past year, we have launched three exciting new developments that are transforming city living:

The Condor - Derby

The Condor is Derby's first build-to-rent development, offering 259 modern one and two-bedroom apartments. Meaningfully named after one of Rolls-Royce's first engines built in Derby in 1918, The Condor features unique design elements inspired by the city's rich engineering and manufacturing heritage. The Condor is the first build-to-rent development in Derby and is redefining rental living in the City.

The Barnum - Nottingham

Located in a prime regeneration area next to Nottingham Train Station, The Barnum provides 348 apartments ranging from studios to 3-beds. The interiors pay homage to the site's Victorian railway history with bold pops of colour and vintage-inspired furnishings. Residents love the extensive social spaces including a lounge, co-working area, private dining room and roof terrace. And with a 5-star Google rating, it's clear The Barnum is a hit!

The Silver Yard - Birmingham

The Silver Yard has recently launched and located in the heart of Birmingham, delivering 375 one and two-bedroom rental homes as part of the landmark £350 million Masshouse project in Exchange Square. Named after the city's jewellery quarter heritage, The Silver Yard features stunning interior design alongside over 8,500 sq ft of resident amenities.

These three developments, totalling 982 new rental homes, demonstrate our passion for creating places people love to live, with a focus on sustainable, community-focused urban regeneration. We are immensely proud of our on-site teams who go above and beyond to deliver exceptional customer experiences, with an average resident satisfaction rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars.

Thank you to the Midlands Residential Property Awards for this wonderful recognition. We look forward to continuing to raise the bar for hassle-free, high-quality renting across the Midlands!
