We create homes worth celebrating.
Not just places to live, but places people are proud to call home.
We transform overlooked buildings into small-scale, design-led developments that bring new life to communities and strong returns to investors who share our vision.
Anthem creates thoughtful residential developments by converting underused commercial buildings in high-demand, under-supplied areas of the UK.
This isn’t housebuilding at scale. This is targeted, place-conscious development that:
Adds value through planning, reconfiguration and liveable design
Delivers homes that lift the quality of a street
Supports long-term value for residents and investors
Aligns with local need, policy and momentum
Every home we deliver is built with care and built to last.
That’s what makes it worth celebrating.
Over 50,000 commercial buildings in England could
be converted into homes, unlocking space for 500,000+ new dwellings.

The UK doesn’t just need more homes. It needs better ones.
Tens of thousands of commercial properties are sitting empty. With the right approach, they can become something people want to live in.
We focus on projects where:
Entry value is below local residential benchmarks
Local demand far outpaces supply
Policy supports thoughtful repurposing
Design can unlock real value — commercially and socially
We don’t force developments into places that don’t need them.
We invest in locations where better homes make a difference.

London Thames Gateway
A national growth corridor stretching from East London through Kent and Essex.
Driven by major regeneration, transport upgrades (Crossrail, Lower Thames Crossing), and sustained government investment.
Greater Manchester
One of the UK’s fastest-growing urban areas with strong local economies, rising populations, and excellent connectivity.
This all makes it ideal for high-yield rental and resale opportunities, especially in well-located towns and suburbs.
South Hampshire (Solent City)
A coastal market area undergoing steady regeneration.
With naval history, expanding universities, and improved transport links, this area is seeing rising demand but limited quality stock. The ideal conditions for thoughtful, small-scale development.
Better design builds better spaces and places.
Design is not a flourish. It’s what makes a home feel like home.
It improves daily life for residents
It reduces voids and maintenance issues
It increases end value and resale appeal
We work with architects who understand how people live.
We prioritise smart layouts, natural light, and practical touches that make a home work.
We avoid unnecessary complexity. We invest in quality where it counts.
Good design helps people feel settled and proud. That creates stability and value.
We work with aligned investors who believe returns and impact can go hand in hand.
Our investors get:
Asset-backed projects with considered exit options
Access to real-time reporting and direct dialogue with founders
Exposure to under-supplied markets with strong local drivers
Opportunities to support small-scale developments that do things differently.
We don't advertise for capital. We build long-term relationships.
If our approach resonates with you, we’d love to talk.
