Award Comments

The Dandara Group dates back to 1988, developing over 23,000 homes in that time. But it recognised the burgeoning BTR sector, launching Dandara Living in 2015. The company now has around 2,700 units under management, and 17
portfolio sites compromising 4,700 apartments as well as commercial, amenity and retail space.
There is a construction focus on brownfield sites in regeneration areas, as well as
low U-Values and air permeability rates and this approach extends to refabricated superstructures, factory-made bathrooms pods and a commitment to significantly reducing deliveries to site on the road to net zero.
Measuring social value is key too, especially around supporting local employment.
Public realm includes cycle routes and green spaces, as well as co-working and
innovation centres and food & beverage and retail offerings in partnership with independent local businesses. Residents can rent apartments, furnished and
unfurnished, on standard three-year leases with flexible break clauses.
