The glass ceiling

This flip project updated a 1970s semi that had been empty for 35+ years!

The perfect opportunity to break a street’s ceiling price: a desirable street in a popular town with a south facing garden and canal views - what a find! Bought pre-auction to avoid bidding wars.

We maximised space, light and practicality in a highly considered design to create a desirable, aspirational family home.

After 2 weeks of marketing and a 5:1 viewing:offer ratio, this property sold with a sale price 10% higher than anything on the street before it.
