WHO WE ARE
Ashgrove Partnerships has a strong heritage in working with Registered Social Landlords to develop and deliver high quality affordable and market housing schemes to meet local housing needs.
As part of the independent, privately owned Edenstone Group comprising Ashgrove Partnerships, Edenstone Homes, Bluebell Homes and Edenstone Land we have a proven track record in new build development across South Wales and the South West of England in partnership with housing associations.
Our highly experienced in-house land and development team has considerable multi-disciplinary expertise in identifying, assembling and delivering major residential development opportunities across both the private and public sectors.
The team includes project managers, architects, solicitors, engineers, chartered surveyors and planners and has a wealth of experience in delivering attractive, viable, design-led residential housing schemes.
Working with Edenstone was a positive experience. The team are knowledgeable and well informed. Communications and decision making flowed easily throughout the negotiations and build process. The final product was of a very high standard, a bespoke product of perfecting design and high quality.
MHA have built a great working relationship with Ashgrove Partnerships over the last few years and now have a strong pipeline of projects going forward with them. They have a very capable and experienced team and I would be happy to recommend them to others.
Nupend Farm is an amazing site. I have always heard good things and the scheme you have delivered has certainly matched what I expected.
We have worked with Ashgrove Partnerships recently and have been impressed with their professionalism, their efficiency and the experience they bring to projects. We look forward to continuing the working relationship with Ashgrove Partnerships in the future to provide good quality, affordable housing in South Wales.
