Residential construction

New build and refurbishment projects pose unique challenges requiring expert focus to manage risk, whether that is working in occupied environments across estate regeneration or building new houses. McLaren deliver homes across the spectrum including all types of tenure and high-rise towers.

Residential development

McLaren responds to local needs with tailored residential solutions, creating strong and lasting partnerships in a variety of communities.

We are one of the UK’s leading construction companies and have combined building expertise with our property investment division and a new team of public and private sector lenders to form a unique and agile partnership which can offer a variety of solutions for residential and mixed-use development.

We look beyond simple buildability efficiencies and also think about what we can do as a design developer to collaboratively enhance the project’s eventual value.

£10m
Additional development profit delivered at The Makers, Shoreditch for the London Borough of Hackney through a successful challenge to the planning application and the introduction of five extra floors. We also re-allocated amenity space to the basement to gain extra apartments on the first floor.

Build to Rent (BTR)

Experienced in BTR frameworks, McLaren have extensive expertise in product innovation focusing on long term asset ownership in larger, purpose-designed blocks. For BTR projects, we concentrate on design flexibility with joined-up communal services and base product specifications, whilst creating scope to change superficial finishing over the long term.
