Quote from Head of Property Management: The Shepherd Street property presented a particular challenge due to the vast array of mechanical and electrical equipment in the house; the specification had to be quite precise and approved at every stage by the client and the finish had to be exactly in accordance with the client’s wishes and to a very high standard, which the team met successfully at every stage.

Quote from Head of Lettings and Management: There was not a single day following the purchase that some aspect of the renovation was not being worked upon, whether it was the furnishings or the mechanical and electrical installations. As a result of careful project management and pro-active planning, we were able to complete and photograph the finished product, ready for brochure preparation and marketing, enabling the property to be ‘market ready’ in record time.
