A landmark building in Hull’s Victoria Dock area will be converted into residential apartments following its acquisition by Nottingham-based property investment firm PIP Group. The company recently finalised the purchase of the former Victoria Dock Offices and secured planning approval from Hull City Council for the redevelopment.
The project involves converting the property, located at the Plimsoll Way and South Bridge Road roundabout, into six apartments, three of which will have two bedrooms and three will have one bedroom. Each unit will feature views across the Humber Basin.
The redevelopment adds to PIP Group’s growing portfolio of regeneration projects across the North of England and the Midlands. The firm has been focusing on revitalising underused properties with potential for high-quality living or commercial spaces in key regional growth areas.
The transformation of the Victoria Dock Offices reflects ongoing investment activity in Hull’s urban renewal, which has seen increasing interest from developers targeting historic buildings suitable for modern residential conversion. The scheme is expected to enhance the area’s appeal to professionals seeking waterfront living close to the city centre.
Arv Soar, founder and managing director of PIP Group, said: “The acquisition of the Victoria Dock Offices is an exciting opportunity to breathe new life into a building that holds both historical and architectural significance.
“Hull is a city undergoing significant regeneration, and we are thrilled to be part of its continued growth. Our vision is to create high-quality, modern living spaces that retain the character of this beautiful landmark while offering residents a contemporary lifestyle and exceptional views of the Humber Basin.”
