About wheatsheaf works

Victoria Park

The Wheatsheaf Works is an exciting development by Urban Rhythm on the edge of Leicester City centre.

Creatively designed and with a contemporary twist, the Wheatsheaf Works is the epitome of modern living and features a combination of refurbished Grade II listed buildings as well as offering some unique new townhouse designs.

The development, comprises 172 high quality homes with the ornate, Neo-Jacobean main factory building being converted into a series of townhouses using contemporary interventions into the existing fabric of the building.

The homes are located around an extensive landscaped courtyard, helping to ensure the development has a real sense of community.

The new build houses contrast the beautiful historic façade of the listed buildings helping to create this new community drawing on the founding principles of the Co-operative philosophy of community living.

The Wheatsheaf Works is ideally located with an abundance of local amenities on the nearby Welford Road and fashionable Queens Road area. Leicester is a short walk or bus ride away, while its proximity to the M69 and M1 motorways, means other parts of the UK are easily accessible.
