The Vale is a project we have been working on for some time and we are thrilled to have received Planning Permission for this ambitious project.

Sunny days don’t come very often in the UK, so when they do, you naturally want to make the most of them. The ultimate luxury for a home has to be the addition of a swimming pool. If you’re lucky enough to have the space, building a swimming pool is a great way to add a private sanctuary where you can relax, unwind, and forget about the world. Here’s everything you need to know about building a swimming pool in your home.

Over the past few years, our homes have shown us their full potential. They have become our makeshift gyms, parks, cinemas, restaurants and beauty salons. Now that the pandemic is behind us, we have the time and resources to create spaces that work better for us, for the long term.

Listed Buildings are extraordinary properties with a rich past that have been deemed in need of protection. The properties that fall into this category of listed building are considered to be of national importance and typically range from the 17th century right up to the early 20th century. Known for its intellectual and artistic connections, the Hampstead area has some of the richest architectural history in London, featuring Georgian houses, Victorian terraces, Arts and Crafts homes, and even pubs that qualify as listed buildings. Investing in one of these beautiful historical listed buildings is a great way to enjoy a home with deep character and features you might not find elsewhere.

Haringey has become an increasingly popular place to live in North London. Indeed, the area is far enough away from the hectic centre of Central London to offer a more peaceful retreat, but close enough to benefit from a vibrant nightlife and shopping scene.

Before diving into the proverbial basement deep end, here are some things to consider.

When you think of artists, there are some renowned names that are sure to spring to mind. Yet a name that might not come quite so readily is Xul Solar. Xul Solar has been called Argentina’s Salvador Dali, being both a supremely talented creator and an eccentric one at that. We think it’s time that more people know about this man who has contributed so much to the artistic world.

The Modern House is a different kind of estate agency. Voted by GQ as one of the best estate agencies in the world, its main ethos is “that it is all about a lifestyle”, helping people to live out their architectural fantasies by giving them access to the most beautiful homes in the UK.

Installing a skylight roof is a great way to inject natural light and infuse a home with brightness. As it can be a relatively costly affair, you want to make the right choices for your space. A skylight roof not only brings in more light and illuminates darker spaces, but it also adds value and character to your house’s aesthetic.

Imagine stepping into a dark, dingy home. It wouldn’t matter what else it had going for it; the lack of natural light would be somewhat off-putting. Now, picture setting foot into a bright space with plenty of natural light pouring in from all directions. The impact of natural light on how you feel about the property would be significantly more positive, even if the house had other limitations.
