We partnered with a highly regarded contractor, Scotia Property Services, to undertake a comprehensive refurbishment of a flat located in the picturesque Meadows area of Edinburgh. This project was particularly exciting due to the unique challenges presented by the property, which required not only aesthetic enhancements but also structural improvements to ensure longevity and comfort for future residents. As part of the refurbishment process, we laid down 100 square meters of high-quality plywood as a foundational layer to prepare the floor. This step was crucial, as it provided a stable and level surface that would enhance the durability of the flooring installation. Following this, we installed the exquisite Herringbone flooring from @howdensjoinery, a choice that reflects both modern elegance and timeless style. The Herringbone pattern, known for its distinctive zigzag design, adds a sophisticated touch to the interiors, creating a visually appealing flow throughout the space. To achieve a seamless finish, we took great care to ensure that the flooring was expertly cut around all the original woodwork and fixtures, preserving the character of the flat while enhancing its overall aesthetic. This attention to detail not only highlights the craftsmanship involved but also respects the historical elements of the property, creating a harmonious blend of old and new. The result is a beautifully refurbished flat that stands out in The Meadows, offering both functionality and style for its future occupants.


As part of the extensive renovation project, we undertook the exciting task of fitting a brand new Howdens kitchen, which is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. This kitchen features stunning quartz worktops that add a touch of elegance and sophistication to the space, offering both durability and beauty. The quartz surfaces are not only resistant to scratches and stains but also provide an easy-to-clean option, making them ideal for a busy kitchen environment. In addition to the kitchen upgrade, we also installed a completely new bathroom, designed with modern fixtures and finishes that enhance the overall appeal of the home. This bathroom renovation includes contemporary tiles, sleek cabinetry, and state-of-the-art plumbing fixtures, ensuring a luxurious and comfortable experience for anyone using the space. Together, these renovations significantly elevate the home's value and livability, creating a harmonious blend of style and practicality.


The property was meticulously decorated throughout, with a keen emphasis on highlighting its existing architectural features that reflect its unique character and charm. The high ceilings create an expansive and airy atmosphere, allowing natural light to flood the space and enhance the overall ambiance. The intricate cornice work, which gracefully adorns the edges where the walls meet the ceilings, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, showcasing the craftsmanship that went into the original design. In addition, the traditional box skirting, which runs along the base of the walls, provides a classic finish that complements the overall aesthetic of the property. This thoughtful decoration not only preserves the historical integrity of the home but also creates a warm and inviting environment that balances both style and comfort, making it a truly remarkable living space.
