Ilkeston Building Gets New Life

Ilkeston’s historic Bath Street is getting a major makeover as a vacant building with a Ladbrokes and corner store gets a new fourth floor—transforming it into nine modern apartments. This isn’t the first time the town has tried to breathe new life into its aging high street, with the council pushing for adaptive reuse to revitalize storefronts and fund upkeep. The project tackles the housing shortage by repurposing unused space, while preserving the building’s charm with glass balconies, upgraded windows, and fresh white render. If approved, it’ll add two parking spots and offer five one-bed and four two-bed flats—all while keeping the area’s classic look intact.
