RISE Homes are delighted that our development at The Mailbox, Stockport has been awarded Best Residential Renovation/Redevelopment Greater Manchester at the 2020 International Property Awards.

With Stockport’s new Exchange Area on the doorstep and with so much regeneration and investment in this area, we are delighted to be a part of the future of Stockport, we have even moved our HQ here.”
