FH Ventures - FH Ventures

Property development

Our projects

FH Ventures concentrates on high-end property conversions and complex new-build residential projects. This includes everything from barn and hotel conversions to single and multiple family dwellings as well as new-build homes using traditional methods and Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) like SIPs.

The Pebbles

A large extension that morphed into a whole-house refurb, this project in Collingham, presented some challenges thanks to a clever design, but well worth the effort to transform this 1980’s house into a tribute to mid-century design.

Church Farm

FH Ventures transformed Church Farm into a high-quality residential development, showcasing expertise in design and construction.

Askham Park

A collaboration with Niche Design Architects, FH Ventures converted five historic buildings into luxury homes, demonstrating skill in high-end property conversions.

Waver Spring Barns

A five-unit barn conversion near Collingham, all sold pre-completion. FH Ventures’ first eco-project, incorporating solar panels, air-source heat pumps, and enhanced insulation.

Saw Wood Barns

A complex of four barn conversions in Leeds, blending new-build elements with original structures. The project expanded FH Ventures’ expertise in construction techniques and sensitive heritage restoration.

Haverah Park

FH Ventures converted this Victorian building into eight sought-after apartments on Valley Drive, Harrogate, combining period character with contemporary design.

Harrogate Club

A meticulous refurbishment preserving the club’s Victorian charm while introducing modern functionality, reinforcing FH Ventures’ expertise in heritage renovations.

Greystone Barn

A 2,500 sq ft private residence near Thruscross Reservoir. FH Ventures managed design, planning, and construction, integrating air-source heating, underfloor heating, and advanced insulation.

Clarence Road

A two-storey contemporary extension in Horsforth, Leeds. FH Ventures overcame complex site and engineering challenges to create a seamless and highly functional addition.
