A LICHFIELD business has completed a project refurbish and convert a Grade II Listed former office building into eight apartments.

Hessleby Homes has carried out the work on 71-73 Upper St John Street.

A spokesperson for the company said the work had allowed many original features of the building to be given prominence once more.

> “This building was previously an office space with many of the character features removed, hidden or destroyed – but after 13 months of restoration, the building now boasts a plethora of historic elements on show.  
>  
> “Hidden fireplaces have been opened up and refurbished and missing fireplaces have been reintroduced with reclaimed materials.  
>  
> “We found an original Minton tile floor which had been covered over and chopped in to, but working with a tile museum to fashion identical remakes, this has been fully restored to its original glory.  
>  
> “Traditional joinery like panelling, ornate skirtings and traditional four-panel doors have been added throughout and the original timber sash windows have been individually restored to hold the original character.  
>  
> “Historic buildings like this are out absolute passion. It’s a privilege to create beautiful homes fit for modern living, while saving buildings such as this one from decay and decharacterisation is what we live for.”
