ADDING PROPERTY VALUE

ADDING PROPERTY VALUE

We are coming to the successful completion of another project for one of our valued clients.

This time, it is a charming mews house in always-fashionable South Kensington. The property had originally only one bedroom, with a built-in garage taking the entire ground floor area. It was clear from the start that a garage conversion into a habitable space would allow the interior spaces to be rearranged resulting in a much better layout.

In addition, the property had further potential for a rear mansard extension. Although the mansard was only extended by less than 1m, it provided valuable space for an en-suite bathroom and a cupboard space for a new, high efficiency, heating system.

The entire new layout was made possible by re-configuring the staircase, creating a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom house. This transformation resulted in a property value increase of 30%. Considering the construction cost and the resulting capital gains, the project has produced an incredible 337% ROI (Return On Investment). Now, this is how you beat hyperinflation and retire early!

We are very proud of being part of our clients’ success story and having taken this project from the concept design all the way through a successful Planning application and delivery on site.
