    In 2012, under owners Global Henderson, a planning application to convert the building into 182 flats and add 4 penthouse floors was accepted. Seven Capital acquired 1 Hagley Road in August 2013 and optimised the planning consent to 271 flats with no alterations to the exterior of the building. One, two and three bedroom apartments will be marketed at between £130,000 and £250,000.
