What is Airspace Development?
Airspace development in construction refers to the practice of utilising the space above existing buildings or structures for new construction projects. This often involves building upwards, creating new residential, commercial, or mixed-use developments in airspace above existing properties, typically in urban areas. The concept of airspace development is particularly relevant in areas with limited land for expansion, making use of vertical space instead.​​Airspace development has become more popular with urbanisation and the increasing need to maximise available space, particularly in crowded cities with high demand for residential and commercial properties.
Benefits of Airspace Development
Airspace development offers property owners a unique opportunity to unlock hidden value by utilising the unused space above their buildings By adding new residential or commercial units, owners can significantly increase property value and generate additional income through rent or sales. This approach can also fund much-needed building refurbishments, enhance overall aesthetics, and improve amenities for existing occupants. With growing urban housing demand, many local authorities support airspace projects, streamlining planning processes and offering potential incentives. Whether through direct development or partnership with experienced developers, airspace projects provide a smart, future-ready way to maximise a building’s potential with minimal disruption.
​
What we are looking for?
We are actively seeking 3-storey apartment blocks with flat roofs that are suitable for airspace development. Ideally, the building should have a minimum roof area of 100 square metres, providing sufficient space for the addition of new residential units.
​
Our focus is on well-located properties where adding extra floors can unlock significant value for freeholders and leaseholders alike. If you own or manage a qualifying building, we’d love to explore how airspace development could benefit you — whether through increased income, enhanced property value, or funding for much-needed building improvements.
