The proportion of income coming from its share of joint venture development shot up in the period, from 拢64.6m to 拢114.5m.

Meanwhile, turnover from contracting and construction (拢124.3m) and property development (拢13.4m) were both down slightly.

Pre-tax profit was also up, from 拢1.88m to 拢16.9m.

However, the firm said this increase partly reflected changes in the group鈥檚 accounting policies.

It said its previously stated pre-tax profit of 拢7.26m was 鈥渁 more accurate reflection of the business performance in the year鈥.

The business delivered a total of 461 homes in the year through its joint ventures, which are focused on central London.

This was 19% higher than the 386 built in the 2022 financial year.

As of December 2023, the total pipeline of homes carried forward on Mount Anvil鈥檚 developments amounted to 4,296, which it estimates have a total sales value of 拢2.3bn.
