We secured a two-bed terraced house at auction, priced keenly because the layout felt cramped and dated. Our design team re-planned the first floor, relocating the bathroom and opening redundant cupboard space to create a full third bedroom without altering the external footprint. Over 12 weeks a full refurbishment was carried out.

The extra bedroom lifted the property into a new rental bracket. Marketing began as the decorators cleaned their brushes, and within 24 hours of the snag complete the property had already been tenanted.
