OUR RENOVATION PROJECTS

Since buying our first home in 2008, we’ve become serial property renovators, seemingly preferring to live in building sites than the beautiful homes we create… What started out as learning how to do a bit of DIY to improve the homes we could afford to buy has enabled us to learn the skills to undertake more complex renovation projects. We’ve now renovated 5 houses, 5 flats, a shop. Three of these project were Grade II listed properties and most have been in a state of total disrepair. Celebrating the past whilst ensuring homes are fit for the future have guided our restorations. Our past renovation projects are below.
