Neville House is a prominent 1960's five storey building, located on the edge of Corby's town centre.

Construction is by way of an exposed insitu. concrete frame, with infill precast concrete floors and roof, with an external envelope comprising a mixture of composite, glazed and coarse aggregate infill panels, "bookended" by facing brickwork, with further brickwork to the rear of the off-set utility / access core, which has decorative concrete tiles to the front.

The ground floor is currently used for shops & restaurants, while the shell of the first floor has recently been fitted out by the landlord for letting as either office space or some form of leisure activity.

The "floating" top three storeys and roof terrace, along with a ground floor entrance lobby and the utility / access core are residential, accommodating twelve existing maisonettes (six 2-bed and six 3-bed) over the three floors, with a central access corridor on the 3rd floor.

This residential demise was taken over by a Housing Association in the late 1980s, but was subsequently vacated in 2009.

It is the intention of the Employer (Corby Borough Council [CBC]) to take over the remaining Lease and refurbish the residential demise to provide twelve modern and safe 2-bed maisonettes for affordable rent, while renewing the external envelope / façade to improve its performance and visual contribution to the town centre.

To this end the authority (by way of a single-stage fixed lump sum tender, based on outline Specification & Drawings), wishes to appoint an experienced design & build contractor, with a proven track record of successfully delivering this type of refurbishment in a semi-restricted town centre location; on time, on budget and to the specified level of quality.
